On an isolated cattle station in North Western Queensland, the managers wife of the 'Lord Cattle' Station has discovered her true passion - Millinery. Fashion on the Field at country race meets inspired Katrina Dare to start creating her own headwear. Discovering millinery courses online with Hat Academy has enabled her to learn millinery skills at her place and in her free time. “I absolutely love the Hat Academy online lessons,” says Katrina, from her homestead west of Mt Isa.

Her headwear under the 'BarklyBelle’ Millinery label is now catching the eyes of clients and judges at Country Racing events in the outback of Australia. Through her Millinery and fashion sense Katrina ‘dares' to add some sparkle to this part of the sunburnt country known for its droughts and flooding rains.
