Drawing on the poised glamour of 1940s cocktail dressing, these hats are effortlessly elegant. Light, perfectly balanced for wearing all night long, the collection is traditional in essence yet entirely contemporary, bringing a hint of sparkle to weddings, race days and nights on the town.

From coquettish perchers and veiled cocktail hats to embellished headbands, our cocktail and evening hats are beautifully refined and exquisitely detailed. Hand-crafted in Nerida's London atelier with a finish and silhouette as mesmerising as the candlelight, they are versatile timeless pieces that will always be in vogue.

Beautifully handcrafted cocktail hats for special occasions

The cocktail hat occupies a distinctive space between the fascinator and the formal hat — substantial enough to honour an occasion, yet light enough to wear comfortably through an event. This collection draws inspiration from the Golden Age of millinery, when cocktail hats were worn by Hollywood icons and society women alike.

Materials are chosen for their expressive qualities: hand-curled featherwork for movement and drama, crin for architectural form that catches the light, sinamay for sculptural structure, and silk abaca for subtle texture. Forms range from perched discs and angled berets to heart-shaped headpieces and feathered flourishes.

Designed for weddings, race days, formal celebrations and evening events where a refined statement is desired. All designs are handcrafted in our London millinery studio. Made-to-order options are available, with worldwide delivery.
