5.0 out of 5 stars A lovely book in praise of hats., June 4, 1999
By 
Bobbiann Markle (Southwest Nova Scotia, Canada) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Victoria, the Romance of the Hats (Hardcover)
"The Romance of Hats" is a beautifully illustrated book extolling hats, their makers, and those who wear them. I enjoy looking through this book for ideas or just to relax.

5.0 out of 5 stars Very pretty little book, April 12, 2006
This review is from: Victoria, the Romance of the Hats (Hardcover)
"The Romance of Hats" is excellent eye candy. I keep borrowing it from the library; I really must buy it so I can forget about due dates. It has no millinery instruction. It's full of photographs, not drawings, except for little impressionist masterpieces here and there. It's mercifully free of novelty hats. Look elsewhere if you want pictures of hats that look like historical buildings, vegetation, musical instruments or what-have-you.

I love the selections of hats in this book. Classics, they tend towards the old fashioned, but made by contemporary milliners with materials available today, which I find inspiring. Just the pictures of what can be done to dress a hat with a swath of ribbon, lace or dried flowers is enough to make you want to do that right now.

It's a great book for flipping through, over and over again, for you and your friends and visitors.

3.0 out of 5 stars Nice Addition to Books on Hats Collection, December 13, 2005
This review is from: Victoria, the Romance of the Hats (Hardcover)
This small volume profiles 4 modern milliners and includes some nice photographs and little textual ditties on women's hats. A nice little book for the bathroom side table (better than those stupid joke books).
