Fascinators & Headpieces

Nerida Fraiman is widely credited as the originator of the fascinator trend, creating the first pieces in 1998 after training under Philip Treacy at the Royal College of Art. The term 'fascinator hat' describes pieces that sit somewhere between a traditional hat and a pure headpiece — structured enough to read as millinery, light enough to wear without heaviness. This collection works primarily in sinamay for clean sculptural form, crin for architectural drama and movement, and silk abaca for textured organic shapes. Forms range from disc fascinators on headbands suited to wedding guests, to sculptural crin swirls for Royal Ascot, to delicate feather pieces for intimate celebrations. Every fascinator is designed to photograph beautifully whilst remaining genuinely comfortable for hours of wear. The pieces work across occasions from spring racing to summer weddings. Additional colourways can be made to order in our London millinery studio; worldwide delivery.
