Maryland Couture Hat Designer, Eileen L Bleyer, Recognized by the Maryland Center for History and Culture
An Eileen L. Bleyer original couture head-piece from her “Montebello Fantasies” 2019 Collection has been accepted into the Historic Fashion Collection at the Center.
(Baltimore, MD) April 1, 2021- Ms. Bleyer, an 80-year old Harford County resident, designs couture hats and fascinators that are one-of-a-kind pieces and have been featured on magazine covers and on the runway in NYC and at the Embassy of France in Washington, DC. Her original hat, “Joan”, has been accepted for permanent collection by the 175 year-old museum located in Baltimore City. The Maryland Historic Society has recently rebranded as the Maryland Center for History and Culture to better reflect its large collection of unique items that paint an intimate picture of the contributions Marylanders have made to American culture. Bleyer’s piece is just one of nearly 40 original designs that were included in her first New York Fashion Week runway line called “Montebello Fantasies.”
“If you select the perfect hat your whole outfit is elevated to another level. You can have a plain dress and a gorgeous hat and it changes your whole persona. And the truth of it is, if you go back over history, the most famous women in the world always wore gorgeous hats. If a woman walks in the room with an outfit with a gorgeous hat, I’ll tell ya, people are going to notice.”
