Artikal – LOST GEM
Although this address is really her studio, Holly Slayton does welcome people in to view her collection of hats. She is a self taught milliner with a little bit of help from classes at FIT. Much of what Holly creates are vintage inspired handmade hats for both men and women that are sold at both Henri Bendel and Kleinfeld Bridal. Holly told me that she loves teaching millinery classes and hosting bachelorette parties where groups of women can come and make “fascinators” – better known as cocktail hats – similar to what the ladies wore to the royal wedding. Who can forget Beatrice’s and Eugenie’s hats?
