The cowboy look is usually the prevailing fashion trend at the Interior Provincial Exhibition (IPE), but this year a new fad might is taking over.

Beautifully crafted and colourful headpieces can be seen attached to women’s hair all over the IPE.

“The trend has definitely been growing since the royal wedding. It really blew up,” said Kate McFarland, fascinator fabricator.

McFarland was asked by the IPE one month ago to set up a fascinator booth at the fair. They wanted help with their goal of setting a Guinness World Record for the most people wearing fascinators at one event.

Typical fascinators can include just about anything, but most commonly feathers, lace, leaves, flowers and ribbon.

“We’re really focusing on the flowers,” said McFarland, trying to keep with the 112th IPE theme ‘Come for a bloomin’ good time.’

McFarland, born and raised in Vernon, has been making fascinators for about a year now, but has been crafting for much longer.

“I have a booth at the farmer’s market on Mondays and Thursdays,” she said, and once the market closes in October she plans to hit the winter craft fair circuit.
