Summer 2014

Summer
2014
Lightness
Dissolved
Contrasting and contoured, relaxed and rakish:
the Nicki Marquardt Summer Collection 2014 is a celebration of feminine headwear in all its facets. In bold pinks
and warm shades of rust, delicate nuances of aqua and
classic black-and-white, the designs play with geometrically
accentuated and floral-like shapes and exude a natural
nonchalance.
All models, as always made by hand in the Nicki
Marquardt workshop in Munich, boast the highest levels
of workmanship and quality and provide a perfect fit.
The feminine summer hats made from an appealing
combination of sinamay and hemp are sensationally light
and a delight to wear. Trendy Gatsby-style models and
sporty peaked caps promise protection from the sun and
have an appeal for both the town and the beach. The
casual trilby of high-quality Japanese toyo paper, also
made for everyday wear, introduces a new look this season
through the use of extravagant stitching.
Model hats and fascinators made of exotic straw and
exquisite pheasant feathers are inimitable eyecatchers.
Striking folds and soft lines turn these models into
sculpture-like accessories for the head. Created to make
a special entrance, they add pure elegance to every outfit.
