Autumn Workshops

by Atelier

Our Autumn programme of workshops is now available and we are excited to have Bridget Bailey of Bailey Tomlin with us again.  Bridget will be sharing her secrets about making flowers.  This is something that people ask us about all the time so we hope that you will book early to avoid disappointment!

Atelier Millinery’s Fascinator workshop based on our tried and tested ‘recipes’ has proved very popular.   We have added to our repertoire so you can do it all over again and learn something new every time.

Friend of the boutique, April-Sarah is  back again to teach the Clutch Bag workshop – a must for all those weddings and Autumn outings.  We are also looking forward to her new masterclass in beaded headdresses and details will follow soon with a date in December.

by Atelier

Fame at last for the whole Atelier Millinery équipe , including our honorary team member!

Clare Kelly has done us proud with her Meet the Makers article discovering that, ‘hats are for life, not just for weddings’. Clare spent the day with us and even joined in with a course.  She says that visiting our boutique, ‘is like going back in time when customer service meant just that.’

Mary Portas – are you listening?!

We now stock Making Magazine and this month is The Custom Made Issue including our upcycling project showing you how to make a stylish hat trimming from an old shirt.  Watch out boys – ladies will be after your best shirts now…

The award for the biggest fascinator goes to…

by Atelier

… one of today’s students who comes from the school of ‘more is more’!  We were impressed with this bold approach to trimming from both mother and daughter.

Tropical meets Ascot

It's so big that we can't even see you!

All in all, it was another productive afternoon with three very lovely finished pieces: one destined for Ascot, one tropical explosion and one bridal.
