Denholms Easter window 1951

Here is a charming window display for the Millinery department which was then located on level two.  The vendor being showcased was Elizabeth Ford who was a New York hat designer who leased space out at Denholms.  The origional hatboxes were gold and white striped, with a gold rope handle.  I remember my grandmothers closet full of these hat boxes.  recently I was able to locate one at a Wrentham antique store.

Until the next post I would like to wish you all a very Happy easter!
