What Millinery Means to Katherine…
“I take my inspiration from sculptural art, architecture, and nature, pulling all of these elements together in my designs. Like a conceptual sculpture, no two of my designs are ever the same. To me, a hat isn’t something you should wear because you feel you have to. I design hats to empower and give confidence to the wearer. I believe every hat should be a sculpture that enhances both your features and your outfit.
Whether it’s Royal Ascot, Henley Royal Regatta, The Irish Races, Epsom Derby, weddings, garden parties, or if you simply need a glamorous headpiece; Katherine Elizabeth Millinery is home to beautiful hand-made millinery.”
