The Easter Parade on Fifth Ave has been a New York City tradition since the 1870s! That is amazing! What started out as a stroll down 5th ave showing off your Sunday best, has morphed into an event that shows off the most spetactular, over the top head pieces and costumes. I love theatrics and the fun, peacful vibe that surrounds the hundreds that attended. Everyone is happy with good energy!
Every year I say I am going to make a beautiful bonnet, (I already have the concept) and every year, Easter sneaks up on me and I don't have time.
I put together this bonnet shown here. I added my Dahlia silk scarf, adorned it with silk dahlias, and volia! It took me half hour! Lol.
Next year I will have my bonnet ready!
