(cliche!) It completely sucks that Forever is now playing in your sandbox (cliche!) but the fact that a mega-fast-fashion-chain feels tiny hats are a viable product to produce, carry and market means someone with a good head for business decided tint hats are a trend worth investing in.<br /><br />One of the world's most famous milliners-turn-legend, Coco Chanel, had an interesting relationship with copycats. She actually encouraged counterfeits of her iconic suits by sharing designs with department store designers. I can't remember what her reasoning was (vanity? ego-mania?) but she encouraged the proliferation of her designs. Of course this was before the time of rampant knock-offs and the potential billions to be made through licensing; I doubt Mlle. would be happy to see what Chinese counterfeiters have done to her initials these days, but whatever.<br /><br />Anyway, I feel your pain (cliche!) but look on the bright side (cliche!): tiny hats are more popular than ever and you are the master mini-milliner of Atlanta Georgia!alexhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07117673771042622341noreply@blogger.com
