I Love Hats Because?

Everyone has a head, so everyone can wear a hat. The trick is convincing people…

I love hats because they're compact (mostly), re-workable, versatile, stylish - and a lot of fun. They're a great platform for people to show off their various sewing and crafting skills too...

About Me

Milliner and costume maker, trained in Melbourne by Louise Macdonald at Swinburne Uni, by Sarah Conners at Melbourne School of Fashion, and six wonderful seasons at The Essential Hat in Prahran. Survived five years of millinery madness as a milliner at Philip Treacy London, and have come out the other side a very capable technician, with a passion for details and problem solving. Currently in Nottingham, UK, collecting vintage fabrics and haberdashery, and researching hats of the period 1910-1960. There's a lot to learn!
