Prudence, a very energetic, kind soul who clearly loves making hats and taking her time to create a wonderful piece of art. She starts with either deciding from whom she wants to make the hat it can either be to Vivienne Westwood or Italy Vogue covers. Then she gathers inspirations from walking the streets of London going to museums and looking at vintage furniture designs and watching old movies where every single person wears a hat. The moment the idea comes to live she makes the mold of the hat and if she will be using it a lot she makes sure she sends the mold of the hat to get made into wood. Every step of the way and every detail of a making an exquisite hat is done by hand. She loves her work and wants people to be love what they are doing, did I mention she designed the hats for sex and the city movie. She incredibly amazing and we did not want to leave her workplace at all, I would totally stay there if it wasn’t because we had to get going to Westfield mall. Having a mall is quite rare for London, but of course there is a strategy to make this work. The entrance of the mall is amazing with literally looking up at the sky, what a perfect view, and every stand that’s in the middle of the stores goes from doing a massage to cutting and styling your hair. It’s quite impressive since they do a lot of concessions to keep the customer inside the mall practically the whole day. After the visit we made our way either to our flats, store or any last minute details before waking up the next day, really early to be ready by 07:00 am. First, time travelling by eurostar, this by the way goes under the ocean to get to Paris. Yes, quite extraordinary concept and a bit scary but we made it. ( :
