/ Borsalino /

Illustrated tribute to the iconic Borsalino hat, realised for the opening of the new Borsalino Museum in Alessandria, the Italian city where the hat was originally created.

Italian hat-maker Borsalino inaugurate its first museum in Alessandria, the Italian city where the company was founded in 1857. It is the opportunity for Borsalino to tell its incredible story and that of its legendary hats, which revolutionised fashion and captured the Big Screen. Lots of film icons have used hats to make themselves more recognisable on screen, my inspiration for this tribute is infacts Robert Redford and Paul Newman wearing a Borsalino, in George Roy Hill’s film ‘The Sting’
