Winter (head)Wear Week – Past Unboxings

To wrap up Winter (head)Wear Week, I thought you might enjoy this selection of past unboxing videos as I open winter hoods when they first arrive.

While it is nice to have pristine or exceptional examples, I prefer pieces that allow me to explore how they were made, the details of construction. Some pieces show piecing or little make-dos. Others show wear patterns. Fractured silk can allow a look inside. While some are fairly clear puzzle pieces falling into place, others are little oddities, offering more questions than answers…..
