Race Day Hats

Part of the pleasure of a race day is the chance to dress beautifully. From Royal Ascot, Cheltenham and the Epsom Derby to the Dubai World Cup and the Kentucky Derby, every occasion has its own atmosphere, etiquette and dress code. Nerida Fraiman can advise on the nuances of each one, helping you arrive feeling completely confident.

This collection is rooted in considered elegance, with hats and headpieces designed to complement rather than compete with your outfit. From sweeping wide brims and sculptural silhouettes to refined pillboxes, perchers and feather fascinators, each piece is hand-crafted in Nerida’s London atelier using traditional millinery techniques, shaped to sit beautifully and wear comfortably throughout a long and celebratory day.

Many race day hats can be made in a colour to complement your outfit. Please WhatsApp or email us a picture of what you are wearing to begin a conversation. We welcome enquiries from personal stylists and will always do our best to accommodate last-minute requests.

Luxury Race Day Millinery Handmade in London

The racing calendar is one of millinery's most demanding briefs — not because it asks for the same thing each time, but because each meeting carries its own character, climate, and dress expectation. British racing alone spans early spring to late summer: Cheltenham's March winds call for trilbies, cloches, and wool-felt structures that feel grounded and considered; Epsom's June formality suits pillboxes, blocked berets, and refined fascinators; Goodwood and York welcome lighter summer silhouettes across the full breadth of the collection.

Beyond Britain, the calendar reaches further still — from Churchill Downs to Meydan to Melbourne's Flemington, each race has a dedicated collection within this section, designed with the specific demands of that meeting in mind.

Across every race day, each hat is handcrafted in our London studio using materials chosen for how they perform throughout a long day: sinamay and crin for structural clarity, silk abaca and organza for lightness and depth, featherwork for movement and presence. Every silhouette is proportioned to frame the face beautifully and wear with ease from the first race to the last.

Most styles are available for immediate purchase; additional colourways are offered on a made-to-order basis. For international race dates, we recommend allowing sufficient lead time for both production and shipping. Worldwide delivery is available across all collections.
