Piers Atkinson's Pop-up Summer Hat Shop in St Martin's Lane

As this blog is partly about things I find inspiring, I really wanted to post some photos I took of some Piers Atkinson creations - even if it was in June.... Milliner Piers Atkinson opened a pop up shop to launch his Racing Season 2012 collection in the Front Room of St Martin's Lane Hotel where his creations were available to buy during June this year. The amazing and funny set design / creative direction for the shop was in the hands of the very talented Alùn Davies. I loved that when I visited, Piers himself was manning the shop and he was charm personified. Enjoy...
