Fascinator hat made with material from a vintage satin and tweed dress

My Fashion Artist in Residency at the St. Vincent de Paul is rolling along smoothly. I am finding so many great things in the donation bins that I am overwhelmed with the amount of materials to work with!

The picture above is one of my creations. This was made from a vintage dress that I found. It had a satin top with a tweed skirt. I think it is from the 1950’s, give or take a few years. I turned it into a lovely fascinator. I saved the bow from the dress and used it to finish off my piece.
