Poke bonnet

Historic millinery based on extant bonnets, fashion plates, and antique photographs. High quality millinery supplies. Museum quality reproductions.

Last summer I made a sleeveless spencer in blue and styled a reticule and raven brooch with my Regency gown. All that was left to make for this ensemble was a bonnet.

Here’s how that all came together.
