DANI GRIFITS

NEW YORK

Since childhood, I have loved hats and how they transform a person. I grew up in a new, rapidly developing city, but I was attracted, on the contrary, by things with history and a rich past. The collection of hats began when I was eight or nine years old, but when I moved to New York, I was forced to limit my luggage to just two suitcases. So I had to start all over again.

The first hat of the collection was presented to me by a friend, she was made of felt and came to him from a warehouse of theater costumes in Queens. Apparently, there is just a treasure trove of incredible and strange things. My dream is to get to this magical place. I recently bought straw hat materials — I made some of my collection hats myself. But this is a summer version, and now, with the onset of cold weather, in New York, everyone abruptly began to wear black felt hats. They are just everywhere!

I made this hat on request for shooting in Harper's Bazaar magazine.

Mustard hat from the very warehouse in Queens, where I dream to go.

This item is from the new collection of my brand Clyde.

I found this baseball cap in sequins in the tent of a little lady on Bedford Street. My favorite party hat.

I found a dark brown hat during a weekend in the Catskill mountains. There are a huge number of antique shops and shops with trinkets. The hat is terribly old and, it seems to me, made of beaver felt.

Old Navy beret. He is terribly great for me, so you have to stab him from behind. It seems to me that this takes no time - it could easily be made today.
