Hats Made to Match





So as you know I am always making hats to match clients outfits. It can be a dress or a suit or sometimes a trouser suit and anything in between.
Last week the dusky pink hat was worn to a wedding by the mother of the bride.
The dress was very interesting made from a heavy crepe fabric with large bow like details on the sleeves by designer Roksander.
The hat was a blocked beret with a large trim of petals / leaves in soft kid leather, silk and organza.
I also used some beads form a bracelet to finish off the trim. The same necklace was worn to finish the outfit off which was stunning. 
The first image is a navy blue blocked beret to wear with a Ted Baker drees. I used buttons to trim the hat in similar tones to the dress. It's been teamed with a navy blue jersey knit blazer and will be off to Buckingham Place for a garden party in June.
It's the best job making people feel really good about themselves.

A Much Delayed Blog Post











It's been a while since my last blog post and the reason is because I've had a hand injury.
This was self inflicted I'm afraid and a silly thing to do given the fact my hands are so important to my work.
I was jabbing away at something stuck to the side of a container with a pair of closed scissors and of course they slipped and went straight into my hand.
It has healed now but I can still feel it very tender. I couldn't do much for a while and then as soon as I could grip again I was too busy catching up with orders to do anything but sew !
Things has settled back to normal now and the wedding season is up and running. I have made quite a few lovely hats but can't show any of them just yet till after they have been worn. Most ladies like to keep their hats a surprise !
I am also making for Buckingham Palace garden parties plus there's Ascot so it's a busy time in the workroom.
My wedding weekend was all but snowed off but that didn't matter, all the gorgeous things in my windows have helped to inspire my wedding goers and send out all the right messages that I am definitely a great place to come for your upcoming events.
