Larger than life - Albertus Swanepoel

Ok I know I have blogged and carried on about my friend Albertus Swanepoel many times, but hey what can you do when you are bursting with pride. My friend is now larger than life ( literally) When you see yourself on a billboard in New York City you then know you have made it - and made it he has.

 

Albertus has just launched a whole range of hats in Gap which are reasonably priced yet very stylish

  

Here are two from his collection...

 

I am just oozing with pride over my talented friend. ...

So ladies, hang on to those frocks and dash of to your closest Gap store and get yourself a Albertus Swanepoel hat xxxx

 

Albertus Swanepoel - Einstein of hats

I have often blogged about my friend Albertus Swanepoel - the milliner.

I wanted to share a hat he made for my shop using some of our vintage  belt buckles. I am sure you will agree with me his talent is beyond words.

 

 

 

 

Even the back of the hat is done so beautifully ( all by hand)

 

Nothing but a masterpiece ...
