À propos de ce produit

Product Information

Countless black women would rather attend church naked than hatless. For these women, a church hat, flamboyant as it may be, is no mere fashion accessory; it's a cherished African American custom, one observed with boundless passion by black women of various religious denominations. A woman's hat speaks long before its wearer utters a word. It's what Deirdre Guion calls "hattitude...there's a little more strut in your carriage when you wear a nice hat. There's something special about you." If a hat says a lot about a person, it says even more about a people-the customs they observe, the symbols they prize, and the fashions they fancy. Photographer Michael Cunningham beautifully captures the self-expressions of women of all ages-from young glamorous women to serene but stylish grandmothers. Award-winning journalist Craig Marberry provides an intimate look at the women and their lives. Together they've captured a captivating custom, this wearing of church hats, a peculiar convergence of faith and fashion that keeps the Sabbath both holy and glamorous.

African American Women and Their Church Hats : "Our crowns have already been bought and paid for. All we have to do is wear them." -James Baldwin "We just know inside that we're queens. And these are the crowns we wear." -Felecia McMillan, journalist "Listen, never touch my hat! Admire it from a distance. Those are the hat queen rules, honey." -Peggy Knox, child care provider "You can flirt with a fan in your hand. You can flirt holding a cigarette, too. But a woman can really flirt with a hat." -Dolores Foster, real estate agent (retired) "My husband said, 'You don't need another hat. You don't have but one head.'" -Dorothy Wynecroff, middle school teacher (retired), African AmericanWomen and Their Church Hats: "Our crowns have already been bought and paid for.

  • Crowns by Craig Marberry, Michael Cunningham

    I am an artist and a devoted people watcher. I use the human form to portray beauty and dignity in my work -- I purchased this book strictly to study the faces (& hats) of beautiful proud women. I was very pleasantly surprised to find that the book has some very short essays with each woman's portrait that are very much worth reading. As an Italian American, I was curious about the cultural motivations of the women in this book. (Why bother to keep the marvelous tradition of elegant hat wearing alive?) I was further impressed that the tradition is not completely rooted in mere vanity alone. This beautiful collection of black and white photos pays high tribute to just a handful hat wearing ladies whose individuality shines out from under some lovely, sometimes stunning, examples of the ...

  • Great book

    For those of us that grew up with Ladies in beautiful, wonderful Sunday hats. I love the inspiration that goes along with each picture.

  • Crowns is an inspirational read

    I heard about this book awhile back. Recently I was gifted one of these “crowns” and it means even more after reading this book. In these times of great divide, this is a good book to enjoy.

  • Crowns: A Glorious Memory

    This book brings back so many memories of not only my dear Mother in her beautiful crowns, but of all of the other church Sisters. Although smaller than I remembered, the book is still in pretty good condition.

  • Great Price!

    Great price for the item! Although, it does have an inscription in the front. I was made aware prior to purchasing.
