Downton Abbey Style Wide Brim Church, Race, Wedding Hat
Couture Millinery handmade wide brim summer hat made using traditional millinery techniques. I first made a buckram frame which was hand formed over a vintage wooden hat block. The brim is hand formed and shaped with wire inserted for form and stability. I covered the buckram form with a pale shimmery ivory satin fabric and attached a netted fabric embellished with a embroidered and sequined floral design in shades of teal, turquoise and royal blue. Countless hours of hand sewing have gone into the decoration of this hat. It will truly make a fine family heirloom to be admired for many years to come. I can recreate this hat in a variety of colors. Contact me and I will forward instructions on measuring your head size. I have a turn around time of 10 business days for these style hats.

I have always been a maker of things. My first memory of making things was when I was a little girl. I would cut up old sheets while sitting on the living room floor and try to figure out how all the pieces could be fit together to make something. My fascination with fabric has never been far from my mind. I have always had needle and fabric in my hands. I started designing my own cloths in Jr high and never stopped, some 40 years ago. I have always had a love for hats. When I discovered the internet I knew I could now make and sell my hats. I am so excited to have found CustomMade.com a place to share and grow my love of hats.
I offer custom made and ready to wear hats. Hat designs from the 1900's Victorian era past the Roaring 20's flapper days and beyond the World War II Bombshell hats. A hat shop dedicated to the fashions of the past with a connection to the styles of today.
