Garden Party Hats

British summer garden parties span a wide spectrum, from relaxed private celebrations to highly formal royal events at Buckingham Palace and Windsor Castle. Each setting calls for millinery that understands both etiquette and environment — elegant enough for formal occasions, yet practical for extended outdoor wear.

For the King’s Garden Parties in particular, hats must honour the formality of the setting while remaining comfortable through long afternoons standing and walking on lawns. This collection offers styles suited to that balance, including medium-scale disc hats that read beautifully against garden settings, classic pillboxes and berets for structured refinement, and substantial yet elegant hats that provide presence without excess.

For less formal summer parties, lighter options such as refined headbands, smaller fascinators and sun hat–inspired styles offer ease and versatility while maintaining a polished look. All designs are secured carefully for outdoor conditions, ensuring confidence in gentle breezes and movement through crowds.

Colour palettes embrace the optimism of the season, from soft pastels and floral-inspired tones to vivid brights and sophisticated neutrals. Each piece is handmade in our London millinery studio, with additional colourways available to order. Worldwide delivery is offered.
