Life-changing moments at Atelier Millinery!

by Atelier

We always enjoy getting to know our students and working with them on the courses but a recent Fascinator Kit class was exceptional.  One of our students discovered her ‘inner hat wearing person’ and declared it a Life-Changing-Moment!

She was transformed before our eyes from someone who was unsure of what to make and how to approach fashion in general, into a confident wearer of feathers, flowers and all manner of other trimmings.

Another student is now considering a career in millinery.  We could not be more proud.

Watch this space...

Perfect Panamas at Atelier Millinery

by Atelier

Where did you get that hat?

Congratulations to Megan for producing such a fabulous hat this weekend!

Starting with a basic ladies panama, she learned how to tailor it to her size, shorten the crown and then trim it with some very smart shirting fabric.

Atelier Millinery is opening!

by Atelier

Dear friends

Atelier Millinery will open for business on Thursday 13th May 2010.

The idea for this new venture grew from a millinery wish list:

  • beautiful feathers, flowers and trimmings sourced from far and wide
  • excellent quality materials and millinery equipment all in one place
  • friendly service from people who know their stuff
  • space to design, work and teach

And so the list grew into a shop with all of the above as well as hats and fascinators from carefully selected labels.

Please join the Opening Day celebrations from 6pm to 9pm.

We look forward to seeing you.

Unit 1.7
