Throwback Thursday - 1930s Style Inspiration

Jean Harlow, film star of the 1930s
This is the next installment in my weekly mini posts, looking at each decade up to the 1960s. This week's theme is the 1930s. If you want to see my 1920s post, click here. The 1930s was hit by The Great Depression so poverty was at an all-time high. Swing becomes the popular music of the decade, overtaking jazz of the 1920s. My favourite Disney film, Snow White and the Seven Dwarves was also released in 1937! The Wizard of Oz was also released in 1939, giving rise to the young star, Judy Garland.

Betsy Hatter - 'Elspeth' Straw Hat

https://www.etsy.com/uk/shop/BetsyHatter
The wonderful Betsy Hatter was kind enough to make me one of the hats from her range. Each piece is hand made by her in Norwich, East of England. Millinery is a beautiful craft which takes lots of time and skill and I was over the moon that she agreed to collaborate.
