Product Description

In the pages of this complete guide by "Britain''s hottest new milliner," learn to express yourself through the design and creation of your own hats and headwear.

This book offers a fresh and enticing introduction to the art of millinery, blending modern design and refined techniques with trusted traditional methods. Clear and concise, it''s been compiled with all budgets and a variety of skill levels in mind.

Readers will explore core millinery materials through a series of techniques based on a single wooden block and sculptural, hand-sewn, flat-patterned hats. They''ll also learn ways of working sustainably.

More than 200 photographs, sketches, and clear guidance from Sophie Beale combine to offer over 20 activities, with instructions for 11 complete headpieces and hats, including straw hats, boaters, felt hats, veils, and more. The projects are carefully planned to make them easy to digest, each focusing on different, interchangeable materials and methods.

Includes helpful indicators for skill level, a glossary, and suppliers list.
