A shabby chic sinamay cloche hat for a summer wedding or any special or gala event. The hat is done in a nice ivory with accents ranging from pink blush to pale peach. The hat is accented with handmade flowers intertwined with floral designed ivory lace appliques. The hat band and brim binding are done in a nude/blush pink taffeta. The hat is entirely hand crafted from using a vintage wooden hat block to form the crown, down to the hand formed brim. The accent flowers were made using a antique heirloom ribbon technique. This is a MADE TO ORDER hat. I will need a accurate head measurement. If you are in doubt as to how to measure contact me and I will forward pictorial illustrations.
Gail's Custom 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 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.
Absolutely perfect! My mother cannot wait to wear it for my Gatsby theme wedding.
I am so pleased with the velvet hat - it is beautiful and very professionally made. It was packed with great care and arrived before it was expected - so it was an extremely pleasant experience. I am going to order another one today.
The hat was beautiful and my girlfriend loved it. It would gain on being packed in a hat box, hence the missing star.
My experience with custom made has been an outstanding event. Gail's patience and guidance throughout the creation of my 1920's hat was greatly appreciated. She went above and beyond to create this hat for my wedding day. Her talents and intuition as an artist will far exceed anyone's expectations. Gail is a true artist. and I was privileged to have worked with her on my project.
I'm absolutely thrilled with the hat! Perfect fit! Quality is "tops"! My experience was perfection from beginning to end. My hats off to you Gail! Thank you.
