Head Pieces

These allow the wearer a greater freedom as they are attached to the hair using clips, a comb or a band. They are ideal for any hair style or face shape as they perch on the side of your head and are usually very lightweight.

‘The fascinator’ as they are affectionately called in the industry were evolved when Sophie and Edward got married as Sophie didn’t want hats at the wedding. Since then they have grown in popularity for ladies wanting to look stylish at weddings and the races but not wanting to wear a formal hat. Celebrities such as Victoria Beckham, Sarah Jessica Parker, Paloma Faith, Gwen Stefani and Naomi Campbell (to name a few) all have been photographed on several occasions wearing fabulous headpieces.

Sharper Millinery can create the perfect headpiece from Sinamay, straw, Crin, velvet, silk or metal and adorned with ribbons, feathers, jewels and flowers allowing them to be as large or small, as the wearer desires. Perhaps a few flowers and ribbons for a smaller creation or a series of twisted straw shapes mounted onto a base and decorated with feathers and ribbons? Options are endless!
