- I Love Hats Because?
- They are an extension of the soul for me. One make express themselves by clothing style but the hat is an exclamation mark. It evokes emotion.
- About Me
- I am a French Room trained milliner which means "hand-sewn" with attention to detail. I love to work with buckram and various fabric coverings.

Hello Fellow Hatters and Others!!
My style is vintage with my own twist. I am the head milliner for a Steampunk clothing store www.clockworkcouture.com. I also take custom orders for outside clients and work from my own home workshop. My media is primarily buckram based frames that are covered with fabric and vintage/found odds and ends. I have been trained in what is called French Room millinery or literally "sewn by hand".
I am so happy to have found a millinery community as hat making has faded with the last few decades. I am hoping it makes a victorious comeback! Thank you for checking out my work.
Sincerely,
Shurie Southcott
