Who was Archie Eason
In 1954 Archie Eason started working as a department stock boy in Jacksonville Florida. He learned the millinery trade between shifts while watching shop personnel make hats. His skill helped him to land an official job in the millinery department and, in a few years, he designed for the store under his own label.
After 14 years, he moved to New York and worked with numerous fashion designers, developing an impressive clientele of Hollywood stars. Eason produced all types of hats to fit every type of face and his most famous creation was Faye Dunaway’s beret in 1968’s Bonnie and Clyde. Customers knew immediately which hats were his due to his signature style placing a green sequin on the outside of the crown of each one.
