Go head over heels for a glimpse of designer hats
A TOP-TO-TOE display is bringing fashion-lovers flocking to Cirencester.
Head over Heels is a dramatic exhibition of headwear and fanciful footwear from top designers.
Many of the artists and designers are also in residence at New Brewery Arts, so visitors can see them at work.
Dazzling with her designs, Sarah Cant said: "The response has been really good – people seem to find the exhibition quite accessible.
"People can get up close and even try them on.
"There's a outstanding display of a crowd of people with just their hats suspended in space and shoes underneath.
"Materials range from high-tech plastics to the most delicate feathers.
"I've pushed techniques and, rather than having a conventional bridal train and veil, I've made a two-metre train of thousands of hand cut flowers on very fine wire to create a cascade effect.
"They're overprinted with handwriting and old photos, giving the look of a family album."
Also displaying are Bridget Bailey, Georgie Carss, Pip Hackett, Karen Henriksen, Sally Ann Provan, Yasmin Rizvi and Noel Stewart.
Shoes on display come from Tracey Neuls.
The show ends on April 18.
