MAISON MICHEL S/S 2016

And on. To be worn with personality, edge and eccentricity, just like the young trend-setters and style influencers that pop up during an Internet search on the storied couture millinery. Maison Michel's unique hats, whether wide-brimmed styles in gentle pastels, or classic Panama models in ivory and tan, are great style-changing investment pieces. This year marks Maison Michel's 80th anniversary yet the storied French house is in great shape. The boom for headwear has further bolstered its appeal, regardless of age and sex. Since it was established in 1936, Maison Michel has combined know-how and creativity to meet the demand of the most prestigious fashion houses. Now owned by Chanel, the collections are designed by creative director Priscilla Royer, whose head-turning styles mix tradition and innovation with cultural and historical references, wearability and an overall free attitude
