| Los Angeles | September 7, 2011 The Rad Hatter The Millinery Guild Opens on Beverly
but “dull” is not one of them. Her new Beverly Boulevard boutique, The Millinery Guild,specializes in eccentric, over-the-top headwear (an all-too-raresight outside British aristocracy and Munchkinland). Inside the all-white jewel box space, you’ll find hand craftedtoppers that range from whimsical (felt fedoras with bird appliques) to WTF? (a mousetrap headband with a wedge ofrhinestoned cheese) by established labels such asCristina de Prada, Su WeHa, and Carpe Diem. Then there’s Murphy’s own line, Montez, with avant-garde creations like a mouth-shaped straw beret dangling a cigarette. She often uses wooden hat blocks from the 1930s and 1940s, so even custom orders have a vintage twist. Want to flex your own millinery muscle? Murphy plans to teach beginners’ workshops at Hands-On 3rd. We’re brimming with excitement. The Millinery Guild, 7767 Beverly Boulevard, between North Ogden Drive and North Genesee Avenue, Fairfax District (213-985-4784 or themillineryguild.com), $65 and up.
