Title: OUY! Chapellerie @ The Shops
Post by: EmGee on February 11, 2012, 23:43:14: OUY! Chapellerie...
This couture hat shop takes it's name from French hat maker Gerard Albouy (also known as Ouy). Owned and operated by Madame Agate. The torso mannequins came about by accident, I was trying to figure out how to paint a head, but didn't want the eyes or mouth to show through the paint. So I flipped the heads backwards and made the hair snap right in with minor surgery. :) Enjoy!

I'm sure mine won't be nearly as good, though. Love the manequins, great idea to turn the heads around.
