Silk Abaca Fascinator with fuchsia feather flowers and trim, great for the Kentucky Derby, Ascot, Weddings, Church, Easter
Silk
Abaca is a fairly new millinery product, made by weaving silk and the
abaca. Manipulation in the steam creates wonderful sculpted pieces that
look stunning and show stopping. The sculpted piece then sits on top of a
small pillbox, the fuchsia feathered flowers and fuchsia trim makes
this a bold contemporary look. This is easily kept on the head with an
elastic band that goes behind the head and hides in your hair.
Unless stated otherwise hats are sized 22" to 22 1/2"
Like
this hat but wish it was in a different color or had a different color
feather? I can do that, Just ask. I love making custom hats, working
with the client to find the right hat to go with the right outfit for
that special event. I can do that,
usually faster than you think. Just send me a message.
The
Hats and Fascinators on this web page are made in my studio outside of
Nashville, Tennessee. I use the age old technique of hand blocking the
millinery material over wooden blocks. I wire the edge of the brim to
maintain the shape and add stability. in most cases I dye my own silk,
velvet or linen and hand tool it to create the flowers. I used an
assortment of feathers, also frequently dyed to match.
