Posted @withregram • @lay_my_hat_ Vesna Pesic X Shaiso
The story and inspiration behind the hat >>>>>

After the conversation with Shaiso about her experience of homelessness during the pandemic, prominent words were safety, security, and angel.

For Shaiso, Lilly from Shelter was the angel who helped her secure accommodation, while having a home is having a sense of security and safety.

The headpiece represents Shaiso’s journey. It expresses how with the right support,
we can have a shelter, how our well-planned lives can easily become very messy,
and how homelessness can unexpectedly affect anyone.
In the space we call home, we’re able to nest.

Feeling protected and having a haven improves our wellbeing, and new sparks of energy and creativity awaken. Having a home ends living in a survival mode and transforms life into living. Shaiso’s resilience and new home will help her thrive.

A fitting ending for hat makers and @sheltercharity participants to finally meet in person to celebrate the beautiful crated pieces, the stories they tell and the bonds created in the process!

Posted @withregram • @lay_my_hat_ Meet @lay_my_hat_ designer @vesnahats Vesna Pesic 💫

She creates sculptural pieces by mixing traditional millinery with other interesting disciplines evolved from her devotion to Tai Chi.

Vesna is a visiting lecturer at RADA @royalacademyofdramaticart and a lecturer at @morley_college London and a founding member of @britishhatguild.

Vesna has used some very interesting materials and techniques in her pairing with Shaiso a previously homeless individual helped by @sheltercharity.

We can’t wait to unveil this piece and the others @londoncraftweek 2022 May 9th- 15th @shelterkingscross
