How a hat makes you feel is what a hat is all about.
Hats make people feel good, and that's the point of them.
The only person I never made a hat for was my mother because my mother didn't really - she preferred to make her own hats. I mean, she was intrigued by everything, but she didn't want one of my hats. She made her own.
Hat-making is laborious and time-consuming. It's a very tactile medium, and you can develop the skills, but it's one of those things: you either have it, or you don't. I love bringing something to fruition with my hands that gives people pleasure.
I'm not a hat person. I really don't like wearing things on my head.
A person carries off the hat. Hats are about emotion. It is all about how it makes you feel.
The personality of the wearer and the hat makes the hat.
Wearing a hat is fun; people have a good time when they're wearing a hat.
Hats are attached to special moments in people's lives - weddings, or the races. In difficult times, people still get married; they still want to look their best.
There's a technicality to designing and wearing hats. A hat is balancing the proportions of your face; it's like architecture or mathematics.
