STEPHEN JONES, Grow some bones

At the Bard Graduate Center on 86th Street, there is a magic show on display. The magician's name? Stephen Jones. The tricks he has to show, his hats.

Stephen Jones is one of the most prolific milliners in the world. He has created hats for catwalks of designers like Christian Dior, John Galliano, Marc Jacobs, Vivienne Westwood, Giles Deacon, Comme Des Garcons, Donna Karan, and L'Wren Scott. His hats cross the line of insanity into pure madness with the structure and extravagant characters that the hats take on.

But let's be honest, it's not all about Mr. Jones. This exhibition is a celebration of hats, from the traditional kinds that shaped a specific culture, to theatrical creations, whimsical ones, and the classics.

Let's celebrate the anthology of hats, from where they came from, to where they were, where they are now, and to where they will become!


THE MAN HIMSELF, MR.JONES








I was not breathing the whole time I was at the exhibit. This is the highest I have ever been.whoo (sorry Chris for the inappropriateness, I have to exaggerate)
