I would like to present to you my ingenious design solution for my hat called "VIP Plunger." My hat was inspired by Philip Treacy and my own theme. It resembles a plunger adorned with crystals and flowers. The colours I used are red as the base of the hat, with orange, green, pink, and blue, creating a harmonious look; I chose the colours individually. I admire Philip Treacy's hats because he has brilliant ideas and good proportions in his colour themes. His style has influenced my hat design because one needs to think innovatively and come up with ideas. The theme of my hat is that it is a VIP plunger with beautiful embellishments. I selected fabric that I dipped in dye to achieve the red colour, allowing it to take the shape of the hat. I rolled paper into a tube for the top of the plunger and painted it orange. I made the flowers from fabric, and the shape of the flowers was created from wire that I twisted. I hope that people will be inspired by my idea and find it both amusing and ingenious. Thank you for your attention.
