I love making hats; from simple fedoras to a sculptural headpieces.  I was inspired by recent Alexander McQueen exhibition in London.  Color, materials and craftsmanship strived me to do lots of experiments in my new hat collection. I chose Black and red colors as the main them color because I think the combination of these two colors gives the hat a mystic feeling with elegance touch. My work is handcrafted with high quality materials. My favorite fabrics are silk dupioni, silk organza and lace. I applied different kind of fabric manipulation skills with sheer fabrics to create three-dimensional effect for each hats. Additionally, I applied sequins, beads and feather as embellishments to make the hats become "statements".
