Bonnet in American Way Magazine!



Have you done any traveling in the past few weeks? Well, if you flew on American Airlines, you may have seen a snippet about our very own Bonnet in their magazine, American Way. Bonnet was listed as one of the hat shops to visit in the US alongside a great photo of a couple of Elizabeth Rohloff's designs sitting pretty in our shop. Here's what American Way had to say about the growing popularity of such a great accessory:

"Fashion’s crowning accessory is back, and we’re not talking about baseball hats. Pinstripe caps, flattop porkpies, and feathered cocktail numbers make wonderful souvenirs and symbolize confidence, says San Francisco milliner Jasmin Zorlu. Run for cover at the following shops...

...Bonnet, Portland, Oregon
The boutique’s stellar collection includes unisex styles and original works by local designers, such as cloches by ElizaBeth Rohloff and supersoft Faith caps. 412 Northwest Eleventh, www.bonnetboutique.com"
