City Girl Hats

Meet designers Laurie Kennard (left), of Laurie Kennard Fine Millinery, and Jenny, of Formé Millinery. Their wonderful hat creations were on view during afternoon tea the Drake Hotel Chicago on Friday 4/9/2010.  From fabulous fascinators to pleasing picture hats – they have it all for spring events such as the Kentucky Derby.
