Vintage Marina Killery Couture Black Raffia Hat - Etsy。The Marina Killery couture Vintage Black Hat is a rare and unique accessory perfect for special occasions. With an adjustable size and a classic Edwardian look, this fedora-style hat exudes a timeless elegance reminiscent of the 1990s. The black color adds a touch of sophistication to any outfit, making it a must-have collector\'s item for vintage enthusiasts. Drawn to the sculptural nature of hat design, Killery went on to study millinery, and in the early 80’s started her own business making couture (bespoke) hats for London society, including Diana, Princess of Wales, who was one of her most loyal clients. Her millinery creations made regular appearances in Vogue and other leading magazines, and in 1988 her work was exhibited in the show, “Fashion and Surrealism” at the Victoria and Albert Museum in London, and The Fashion Institute of Technology, in New York. Killery moved to New York in 1994, and established Marina Killery Couture Hats Inc., selling all over the United States, London, Paris, and Tokyo, in stores that included Neiman Marcus, Harrods, and Harvey Nichols. In 1998, Killery sold the hat business and applied her talents to other areas of design.
