Royal Ascot

This week has been Royal Ascot week, where ladies and gentlemen don their finest headwear and step out in style.
Here's a little selection if some of the hats I have made for Ascot clients.
Last day tomorrow hope the rain stays away.!

 

 

 

 

 

 

Magenta Magic

Just finished and for sale in the shop a sculpted sinamay hat with a circular trim which as such isn't a trim but somehow stands out much more.
I do love hats that have a strong shape and little or minimum trims they are always the ones that I like to wear myself.
I bought myself a little button hat block last week and I shall be using it to block a new piece [can't wait to use it] I will post a picture soon.
I also made a pretty ivory crin headband with a coral lace frond that has little seed beads sewn up the spine.
Lastly a big teal pedal straw hat perfect for anything outside, if we ever get a summer again !
