Ne vous inquiétez pas les amis, je ne suis pas devenue "calue", le message suivant s'adresse à une amie dont le mail ne fonctionne plus !
Vous pouvez visiter son site ici... mais très loin !
Dear Carolyn,
I tried to answer many times your last mail but impossible to send it : you mail box's got a problem ?
So I hope you will read this message...
Sorry for my late answer but I was on holydays these last two weeks.
I saw the link about the book : it will interest a 18e costume collector friend who study that question and works for the "Musée Provençal du costume et du bijou de Grasse" :
http://www.avignon-et-provence.com/musee-grasse/musee-provencal-costume-bijou/
About the provencales winter black wool hat ("lou capèu à la bérigoulo"), it's really difficult to find it now. These less and less hatter shop now and, to get one, it's necessary to find a
craftsman who know how to make it and order a him copy (expensive !).
Lot of costume collectors make themselves their hat and over pieces of costume impossible to find or to buy...
In your last message, you gave me a good idea : an article about all traditions aroud provencal wedding !
Y collect photos and documents and I will edit this subject soon on my blog.
"Amistousamen" (friendly !),
Cécile
