Working in IT by day and creating masterpieces by night, self professed geek, Christine Amanda from Melbourne, Australia stumbled into millinery from a world of cosplay, costumes and computers. For Amanda, her interest in millinery was a natural progression from her passion for costumes which she has been creating for the past 10 years. Cosplay has seen a massive increase in popularity in recent years as more versatile materials are becoming available and their application is often in alignment with millinery processes.

Christine's dramatic and costume like style can be seen in this gorgeous halo style crown. Delicate red roses complement this cage-like entanglement of wired vines in a halo shaped crown. All of Christine's pieces have that same mysterious, playful, enchanting feel, be it a stiffened lace halo or a luscious forest harvest crown with berries, blossoms and the like.
