As a hat designer I think is of the upmost importance that we do not see Couture Millinery disappear.

I enjoy creating modern designs with old couture techniques, each piece being hand blocked and individually stitched, without the use of machinery. My objective is to design pieces which are also seen as art. My work is always hand stitched, bespoke and of the highest quality; perfection is the only option. Materials used are unusual but aesthetically pleasing, making the mind question what it is looking at.
