In 2006, Timely Tresses emerged from the creative endeavors of Dannielle Perry and Mandy Foster. Since then, Timely Tresses' level of quality and dedication to historical authenticity has made it the millinery choice of progressive living historians.
Dannielle Perry, historic milliner and author has more than two decades of experience researching extant garments, antique photographs, and fashion plates. Dannielle is the author of Fashionable Bonnets: from the Introduction of the Ambrotype in 1854 through the End of the American Civil War in 1865, Finishing and Straw Bonnet Form, and Drawn Bonnets: Examination and Construction. She is the managing partner of Timely Tresses.
Mandy Foster, a participant in living history since the mid-1990s, studies fashion history and teaches sewing, design, and patternmaking. After completing an internship at Past Patterns, she graduated in 2002 from Oklahoma State University with a B.S. in Apparel Design and Production and a minor in History. Mandy and her husband Sean own Baker Lane, specializing in vintage-inspired motherhood sewing patterns, and Foster & Foster Clothiers, specializing in reproduction WWII British dress hats. Mandy, Sean, and their five children make their home in North Carolina.
