From baret to bowler, from cloche to chupallas, from floppy to fascinator: there is a perfect hat for every woman. The right material used in the proper way, that is the technical basis. A hat is an investment. It must give you joy over a long period of time and it has to last. Therefore, I prefer using natural materials, because they ‘breathe’ and are comfortable to wear. These include for instance: felt, sisal, straw, parabuntal, sinamay, (waxed) cotton, linen or wool. Each material asks for a different approach and process. Which is where my years of experience and my classical British training come to the fore: the traditional, artisan techniques of millinery (hat making).
