‘Bridal fascinators’ Articles

Rock me like a hurricane


Here’s a headpiece that tells the story of a love like a hurricane–wild, dangerous, but totally peaceful at its center.  It features a satin-covered base with a storm of hand-placed crystals and and extravagant swirl of feathers to catch the breeze. It attaches with an alligator clip, so you can place it just where you want it.

Feathers up, it’s a little more daring. Feathers down, a bit more of a hat. Either way, it pairs beautifully with a birdcage (sold separately).

Sugar Magnolia


There are times when simplest is sweetest…in life, in love, in fashion, and certainly in weddings.

Here, a single creamy magnolia blossom with just a few softening feathers is the ideal accompaniment to an unfussy bridal gown, a not-too-fancy hairstyle and rustic setting.

**NEW DESIGN**

Another take on the handmade flowers we can’t get enough of. This one’s got a bit of lace and a pearly center. We’ve been told it looks like whipped cream. Mmmm.  These blooms all come with a brooch pin as well as a hair clip, and a version of this one graces one of our favorite bridal hats. Check it out.

Dewdrops

A little bit sweet, but no shrinking violet…lovely on its own, happy to be paired with a birdcage veil.  Wait, are we talking about the fascinator or the bride who wears it?

This small fascinator features pearly “dewdrops” on the petals of the fabric gardenia and three kinds of feathers.

Somewhere in the Middle

She wants it all, and usually finds a way to get it.

In this case, the bride wanted the fresh look of a birdcage, but couldn’t quite let go of her childhoodfantasy of a flowing veil. Voila’! This extra-full double length birdcage bridges the gap perfectly and while performing a balancing act with a fuller dress or a tall bride. Shown here with a pair of ivory peonies featuring a smattering of lacy petals and pearly centers. Veil shown in ivory, also available in white.

Peony Fluff

Pin me up, wouldja? A fascinator like this packs plenty of punch on its own, but pairs well with a birdcage, wedge or mask veil. A corona of the flutteriest feathers surrounds this creamy pearl-centered peony, making it a natural for a breezy outdoor wedding or a bride with a rockabilly bent.

Whole Lotta Flowers

Not a feather in sight (but we’ll add a few if you ask nicely).  One of our more traditional pieces, this bridal comb sports a variety of white flowers from gardenias to more fanciful blossoms with organdy and pearl enhancements. Wear it as is, or pair it with any sort of veil, including traditional tulle.

The Dark Side

She’s a bride with a flair for the unexpected, and what’s more unexpected than…black? We’ve added some sparkle to the center of this generous black flower, which could certainly hold its own as is. What about pairing it with a black birdcage trimmed in crystals? Or a white wedge with black chenille dots? And of course, nothing says it’s just for a bride.

Nothing Fancy

dsc_00771There is no doubt she’s a bride, but this easy-to-wear headpiece isn’t going to cramp her style. Organdy stephanotis with pearl centers adorn an oversize netting  bow, all hand-stitched to a satin headband. How about a scaled-down version matched to the colors of the attendants’ dresses?

A wedge of ivory veiling and a trio of white feathers create a sophisticated, retro look for a bride. Pearls nestle in the organdy ribbon along the edge of the clear comb that holds it all in place. Definitely feminine and clearly bridal, there’s nothing fussy about this headpiece. Wouldn’t it look smashing with a short summer sheath or a long column gown?
