Milinery Hats and Bridal Hair Accessories from Slovakia, Europe

From an early age my mother and both grandmothers encouraged and taught me to draw, knit, sew, crochet and also embroider. In certain age, after earning my psychology degree and settling my carreer in Human Resources, I realised I am still missing something. So I started to create again and slowly moved to millinery as its techniques range from shaping, sewing to embellishing and trimming, possibilities are endless.

I have chosen a great teacher - Rose Cory, royal milliner to late Queen Mum, also called the "milliners’ milliner". She taught me couture millinery techniques with attention to the elaborate details. Every flower and every leaf is handmade by me, using traditional millinery technique and my own patterns. I also make my own hat blocks for blocking cocktail hats, which make my designs really unique.

Premium quality fabrics, pure silks, feathers and millinery material come from shops in London, where are like to travel. Much of my inspiration is from these materials and also from my customers when working on bespoke hats. My biggest motivation for my work are lovely pictures of happy brides with my accessories.
