Past, Present and Future

She’s a modern girl who loved to play dress-up with her glamorous grandma’s hats. A true fascinator in every sense of the word, this wee raw silk hat is a nod to the past as the bride looks to her future. The small bow gathers a wedge of ivory netting that has been hand-dotted with bits of chenille that are much finer than those on commercial dotted netting. Very old-school. Creamy feathers waft behind as the bride floats down the aisle.

Shown here in ivory with champagne trim. Also available in white.

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).

This little hat bridges the seasons nicely, with a handmade black flower and black netting covering a tan straw base. Flirty peacock feathers stand in for stamens. Attaches securely with a comb and works on either side of the head.

NOTE: We can also make this fascinator in pink, white, ivory, brown, navy, red, silver, blue or black.

We admit it, we’ve become obsessed with these handmade flowers. This one is a spectacular deep blue organdy that looks black from certain angles. Don’t rule it out for a bride: midnight is the new “something blue” and we’re getting requests for navy blue birdcage veils, too. (Yes, we do them!)

These flowers come with a clip for the hair and a brooch pin. They make great bridemaids’ gifts. How about letting your ‘maids decide for themselves which way to wear them–in their hair, on their shoulder, at the waist, or…?

So have you noticed? Some of the most modern styles have a retro vibe, like this frothy little bridal hat that balances an up-to-date look with a romantic, vintage feel. It features a handmade flower of satin, lace, organdy and pearly details perched atop a small hat of ivory lace over white satin. We’re happy to do all ivory, all white, or any other colors that strike your fancy.

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.

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.
