So here’s the bit about Serge: As per Wikipedia‘s prologue Serge Lutens “(born 14 March 1942, in Lille, France) is a French photographer, filmmaker, hair stylist, perfume art-director and fashion designer… most well know for his art direction and photography for Japanese cosmetics company Shiseido in the 1980s.”

You see the potential confusion.

But I’m down with photography, the 80’s, hats, film, fashion, make-up and I guess I prefer to smell good, so Serge ticks some decent boxes here, irrespective of whether it is the hat, the picture, the styling, the make-up, or all of the above that is “the work”

There are also some other amazing pictures combining the art of photography and hats accredited to Serge on the web, so I thought I’d share with you some more of these visual after dinner mints. I believe they all largely come from the work he did with Shiseido. Beautiful:
