Recently hats from The Vintage Hat Shop were purchased by the Loretta Young family to be used at the 100th Anniversary Exhibit to be held at the Hollywood Museum! 'Twas a big deal for this Loretta Young fan!
It seems that Loretta Young was such a big fan of Lilly Dache' that it is rumored that she purchased every hat in the shop when Lilly announced her retirement. Since Lilly was a favorite of Loretta's, one of the hats purchased for display was a Dachette.
An article about Lilly Dache', also furnished by The Vintage Hat Shop, will be on display, too.
The other hat chosen for display was a 1960s breton by Bonta. Another classic 1960s style hat.
The display will be on exhibit from December through April at the Hollywood Museum in LA.
I have been encouraged to attend the exhibit. Hmmmm, there may be a California trip in the future for The Vintage Hat Shop!
I'll keep you posted.
How exciting. I used to watch the Loretta Young Theater on TV when I was young. I loved her. I thought she was the epitome of glamour.

Can you identify any hats of Ms. Young's made by Kate Scholl? Kate had a millenary/hat shot in LA are in maybe '20s, '30s, '40s. She was my great aunt. Thanks.
