  • Elizabeth Sobieski
    THE MASKED HATTER ELIZABETH SOBIESKI ELIZABETH SOBIESKI The Masked Hatter Statement I have never been a fan of shooting selfies: I don’t even possess a selfie stick. I normally prefer to photograph animals and plants to taking pictures of people. But after more than fifty days of not emerging from my New York City apartment during the height of the pandemic, when I did appear, most gingerly, my eyes, nose, and mouth were hidden behind various newly purchased masks and dark glasses long secreted in a drawer, and my head, like always, was topped with a hat from my extensive collection. I no longer had human features, and I found this invisible woman of style a sudden source of intrigue and I was compelled to photograph this wearer of coronavirus chic. Bio Along with her not-so-secret identity as The Masked Hatter of Instagram, Elizabeth Sobieski is a freelance writer focusing on the arts. She studied Fine Art at the University of Pennsylvania, before embarking on a career writing for such publications as New York, Cosmopolitan, The New York Post, and Avenue. She was a Contributing Editor for The Art Economist Magazine and currently writes articles about contemporary art for The Huffington Post, Medium, and White Hot Magazine, as well as providing catalogue essays for artists who are not The Masked Hatter of Instagram.

  • Make Your Own Hats
    MAKE YOUR OWN HATS BY GENE ALLEN MARTIN DIRECTOR OF DOMESTIC ARTS DEPARTMENT OF THE MINNEAPOLIS Y.W.C.A.; DESIGNER, DEMONSTRATOR AND INSTRUCTOR IN MILLINERY ILLUSTRATED BY E. E. MARTIN BOSTON AND NEW YORK HOUGHTON MIFFLIN COMPANY The Riverside Press Cambridge COPYRIGHT, 1921, BY GENE ALLEN MARTIN ALL RIGHTS RESERVED The Riverside Press CAMBRIDGE · MASSACHUSETTS PRINTED IN THE U.S.A. FOREWORD Hat-making is an art which may be acquired by any one possessing patience and ordinary ability. To make a hat for the trade is not as difficult as to make one for an individual; neither is it so high a phase of art. Many rules are given for crown-height, brim-width, and color, as being suited to different types of faces, but they are so often misleading that it seems best to consider only a few, since the becomingness of a hat almost invariably depends upon minor characteristics of the individual for which there are no rules. A girl or woman with auburn hair may wear grays—gray-green, cream color, salmon pink; a touch of henna with gold or orange; mulberry if the eyes are dark. The woman with dark hair and blue or dark eyes may wear any color if the skin is clear. One having dark hair and eyes and a sallow skin may find golden brown, a pale yellow or cream color becoming—possibly a mulberry if just the right depth. A hat with slightly drooping brim faced with some shade of rose will add color to the cheeks. No reds should be worn unless the skin is clear.
