About Me ...

My partner and I design bespoke hats. Alan White Millinery (with designers Alan White and Barry Moss) pride ourselves in providing the perfect hat for our clients, matching or coordinating with any outfit. We are passionate about our craft and ensure the highest quality materials are used in the creation of our hats, sourcing silk and feathers from the best suppliers in the United Kingdom where we are based. We are interested in connecting with new outlets for our work. We ship worldwide and orders can be any size - large or small.

We custom make all our hats and produce lines of couture millinery, miniatures and headpieces. In addition we create hats for brides, bridesmaids, Mothers of the Bride, and Mothers of the Groom. We have recently introduced a “ready-to-wear" range of hats available through our website. The “ready-to-wear” range is a selection of hats, blocked to our specification, in contemporary styles which we then hand-finish with fine feathers, silks and sinamay.

Check out our website at http://www.hats-etc.com to see the full range of our work.

What is hot in fashion this year?

For us as milliners, it has to be a return to the 40's & 50's age of elegance.
