V.V. Rouleaux - London, 2011

With all those wonderful hats and fascinators one needs for the British social/wedding season it's no surprise that a place like V.V. Rouleaux exists. In addition to their incredible selection of ribbons, this fabulous London-based business stocks every kind of pom-pom, tassel, feather, fringe, cord, and bobble you can possibly imagine. It reminded Mlle Bagatelle of her childhood and all those Saturday trips up to New York's trim center where she would spend hours going through boxes of this kind of thing at places like this and this.
