Steampunk Mad Hatter Mini Top Hat

https://www.etsy.com/listing/220682249/steampunk-mad-hatter-mini-top-hat?ref=shop_home_active_2

Hot off the press!!!! Having fun between orders! Had the urge to make a luxe and dramatic Mad Hatter hat but add a touch of Victorian and Steampunk. I took elements from all of our most popular pieces to make this one extra lovable!

Handmade from scratch using a turquoise, brown and silver damask. Ive been using this fabric from the very beginning and its one of our best selling!! I mean.. I can't blame ya. Its freaking perfection. Double trimmed with ivory and rhinestone trim. I created the sash with a strikingly beautiful golden / tan upcycled silk from an evening gown. The sash turns into a stunning oversized bow in the back. Photos do not do this headpiece justice. It is drama and details from every angle.

 I've never done a hat with chains before but I thought the brass with emerald green and turquoise jewels was the absolute perfect pairing for the steampunk vibe. As always, the 10/6 mad hatter tag is hand drawn and crafted to perfection. These tags take almost just as long to create than the entire base!!

Whats a hat without feathers ?? This one boasts a luscious bouquet of several varieties of peacock feathers, pheasant, guinea, saddle and goose feathers. And of course fastened with a vintage brooch.

 I wanted to add as many colors as possible so this could be paired with any outfit. Deep purples from the brooch, greens from the jewels and peacock feathers. Silvers from the fabric. I can see this with anything from a brown, plum or maroon renaissance costume . A riding or military jacket for a stylish tea party or event. The hints of black in the tag and the feathers can even just be matched with an all black outfit. (if you know me - you know thats what I would do ;)

https://www.etsy.com/shop/TwoBackFlats?ref=si_shop

Indulge - Featured in Beau Nu Magazine


Well we all know Two Back Flats is juuuuust a tad Marie obsessed . What can I say except this lived up to every version of my fantasies:  Feminine, bold, luxurious and just a tad bitchy and cryptic.


Creating Marie Antoinette themed hats and headpieces comes naturally to me.. The bright yet muted color tones and whimsical elements are always a perfect combination of youth and luxury.

 

Alana Beall ladies and gents paints these wall murals herself and we love her and are green with envy of her mind blowing talent.






The pink headpiece is the only one still available in the etsy shop. Why? I do not know!! Get on it girls and channel your inner Marie. She's in there. And as always for your own custom hair piece contact via Facebook or Etsy.

Day of the Dead - Dia de los Muertos

https://www.etsy.com/shop/TwoBackFlats

Of all the worlds to create and revisit Dia de los Muertos is one I could dream up over and over. This year I wanted to come away from the ghostly side and play around with the the spirit of the celebration. Headpieces, full sugar skull guise, an ofrenda and of course a lil' bit of rock n' roll. Enjoy, darlings!
