Alexia is a fabulous silk hat in black dupion, has a shot orange silk dupion band and under brim with a hot pink lining. Dark pink guipure lace is decorated with black onxy beads forming the decoration on the band. Gorgeous yellow plumes with smaller pink and black feathers complement the colours of the silks. A handmade silk and tulle flower with beaded centre decorates the side of the hatinator with the feathers coming out from this feature. This hatinator is suitable for a race day, ladies’ day at the races, the perfect accessory for a wedding outfit or any occasion that calls for a fabulous, elegant and timeless headpiece.

All our products are ready to ship. As genuine craftswomen and artisans, all our items are lovingly handmade from start to finish, so no two hats will ever be exactly the same, ensuring you receive a unique piece of art! They are NOT covered cheap hat bases, but handmade using our own designed paper patterns, materials and techniques. Every hat pattern piece is cut out and put together by hand. All our hats have an open crown and fully lined irrelevant of size or shape.

We work in a smoke free environment.

Colours may differ to those you view on your devices.

***HOW TO WEAR YOUR HAT***

The smaller hats are held on the head by an elastic tape, which is worn around the back of the head to the nape of the neck and hidden beneath your hair (my preferred way). Also some have two hidden braid 'loops' to secure a head band (included one size) hair band and or a hat comb. Pins or grips (not included) are useful too. Hatinators are lightweight, easily positioned and secured at your most comfortable angle!

All our products are shipped in protective packaging. Our hats are presented in a purpose made hat box (and then wrapped in protective wrapping).
