With all of Jennine’s talk of wigs, and being in the market to buy, I can’t help but share some wig-spiration from my own wardrobe (grand totals: 4 wigs, 4 sets of hair pieces/falls/extensions, only one looking natural).
Wigs are a great way to bring some vibrancy and creativity to your outfits, whether they are natural looking or not. (Perhaps one thing that would have made the Met’s Superhero themed gala more interesting would have been a few in-character wigs!)
Really, it’s not just me who has this obsession with wigs. You’re likely to find several in the closets of most of my friends.
wait… Oh, where do we wear them? To the bar, the club, during the entire weeks of Halloween and Mardis Gras, to clean in, to Rocky Horror, around our homes, etc.
Great, beautiful, top-of-the-line (or over-the-top) wigs aren’t cheap. If you’re good with a teasing comb and rather crafty, I imagine you can make some beautiful ones yourself.
If less craft-inclined, here are two resources I recommend:
Fifi Mahoney based in New Orleans. Always worth a trip if you’re visiting!
Peacock Blue Design Studio. Makers of so very, very much more. Milliner-costumer all around beautiful goodies.
