The Golden Crown - by Laura Dunn Fabulous 365

Posted April 29th, 2015

2014 started out as the year of the “Crown” at Dolce Gabbana. Dolce featured some pretty stately, jewel encrusted crowns….. that were about as gorgeous as it gets. This year crowns are popping up everywhere…. in many different shapes and forms….. and hopefully here to stay for awhile. We are featuring two crowns today… one by Michael Costello and one purchased in Bali at an authentic Balinese store. Our Michael Costello crown was part of his 2015 Spring Collection…. and is absolutely divine in person. While there are no jewels… the metal work speaks for itself and allows the true beauty of the crown to shine through. We featured it with a Thomas Wylde leather and fur short sleeve jacket.

Our Balinese Crown was purchased for 25.00 in Bali and ties in the back with a rubber band. I will be switching it out with a beautiful velvet ribbon. It’s grand and is worn for many different Balinese ceremonies in Bali. Back in Los Angeles…. it’s worn as a serious fashion statement! We paired our Balinese crown with a silk and crystal Kaufman Franco vest and a Chanel logo pin.
