The snow covered up the grass with her great white cloak,
and the Frost paited all the trees silver.
Then they invited the NorthWind to stay with them,
And he came.
He was wrapped in furs, and he roared all day about the garden and blew the chimney pots down.

Hat show

Januari 15 2012 in Museum “de Buitenplaats” in Eelde a big happening during the Strawinsky weekend was a sparkling hat show from Hillegonda. In this weekend an exhibition of the paintings from Theodore Strawinsky (son of Igor) was shown. On the last day of this manifestation Hillegonda showed a collection of around 100 hats on music from Igor Strawinsky to Brian Ferry.
It was not only because of all the paintings from Theodore and the music from Igor Strawinsky that Hillegonda was inspired, but certainly also by the short and vehement love relation between Igor Strawinsky and Coco Chanel.

Review

A LONG WEEKEND IN “DE BUITENPLAATS” 

_ _ The then following Hatshow from Hillegonda Hoogvliet was also at very high level and according to the famous Dutch writer Rosita Steenbeek could easily have been performed in Paris and Rome. Coco Chanel, for some time the lover of Igor, was her origin of inspiration. It was a stylish by times sparkling show with very diverse items, sometimes very wearible sometimes extravagant, supported by a bouquet of music and beautifully performed by inspired mannequins and dressmen.
A lot of work in the preparation done by many in and around De Buitenplaats, resulted in reaching a climax of this season.__  J.R.
