Mary LaRue, Designs for Wearing

................................................................................................................................................................................................Welcome to everyone whose eyes land on these pages. Here you'll find pictures and descriptions of my latest hats and, perhaps, other works from time to time. No doubt, I also won't be able to resist including some musings on whatever topic is on my mind as I post. It is inevitable.

Chartreuse, Cinnamon and Browns

Flowers and Curls

This hat is chartreuse and black wool with a ruched silk hatband. The silk poof in front acts as a backdrop for the flowers which are a blends of several colors of wool roving.

Each flower has an Austrian crystal in the center. Hand dyed curly locks accent the flowers.

Selections of my hats are available at Edenside Gallery in Louisville and at Anne Sawyer (Hats) in Lexington. Others may be purchased directly from me. For purchases, special orders or questions, please e-mail me.

Mary - You have created another beautiful hat - the colors in this one are exquisite. I love the little crystals in the flowers - and that little ladybug~~ she is adorable!

Best wishes for a Happy and (healthy) New Year. You remain in my thoughts and prayers~~

This is another beautiful hat! Love the silk fabric behind the flowers, it adds another layer of luxury. The small curls outside of the flowers add texture and interest too. Now if you could just get that starburst effect on the crystals when you photograph... like a gleam in the eye! Or a shiny gold tooth.
