About this Product

HANDMADE IN THE USA

A hat is more than just an accessory—it’s about how it makes you feel. At Boston Millinery, our bespoke hats capture the essence of vintage style while elevating your confidence and creativity.

This stunning linen wide-brim hat makes a bold statement, perfect for the Kentucky Derby, garden parties, summer weddings, or cruises. Dress it up or down, and let it take you through countless occasions.

Handcrafted with attention to detail, this hat is made from soft linen and lined with comfortable cotton. Available in several colors, it features a beautifully detailed crown and a large, floppy brim that is stiffened for structure. The open back ensures comfort and style.

Whether you’re attending a vintage-inspired event or looking for that polished, “wow” factor, this hat is stunning, romantic, and feminine.

An original design by Boston Millinery, each hat is handmade by the artist in the USA. Add an extra touch by choosing a flower accessory from our brooch collection here: https://goimagine.com/bostonmillinery/?category_id=67724.

If you’re looking for a specific color not listed, just reach out, and I’ll do my best to find it for you.

Custom Sizing Available This hat is available in all sizes, including custom sizes—no head too big or too small! To measure, simply wrap a tape measure around your head just above your eyebrows and over your ears, making sure the tape lies over the fullest part of the back of your head. Don’t pull it too tight, and measure 2-3 times to ensure accuracy. When in doubt, always size up.

Sizes:

  • Small: 22 1/2"

  • Medium: 23"

  • Large: 24"

Your hat will arrive in a handmade hat bag, and within the USA, shipping is free via USPS First Class mail and is fully insured.

Meet the Maker

The first hat I ever made was about 30 years ago, for a friend of mine as a gift for her sister who was undergoing treatment for Leukemia.........

The joy this hat brought to her, to feel feminine again after losing her hair, touched my heart. After that, a love of making hats was born in me. 
I've always been crafty, taught to sew by my Mum. I can still remember the smell of the small, local fabric shop in middle England, all those years ago, where we were regular customers. It was better than visiting the sweet shop! I had and still have an avid interest in anything artsy, crafty, and addiction to fabrics! One look at a certain fabric and the creative juices start flowing.

I was born, raised, and educated in the U.K. I studied as a fashion student, which gave me a good introduction to Millinery, the art of hat making.
I am now an Ex-Pat and Mum of two energetic and inspiring children, living in New England! This inspires me to cater to the seasons. From sun protection in the summer and year-round to toasty ears in the winter. Supplying hats to a Global market I cater to all occasions and all seasons, year-round.

The original name of my business, “The Waughdrobe” now known as “Boston Millinery” began back in 2009 as a perfect opportunity to have a "storefront" for all the creations realized and also those buzzing around in my head. It also gave me the opportunity, and my children the benefit, of a stay-at-home parent. I am positively enjoying the beauty of being able to do both. 

Thank you for taking the time to peruse my creations. Whether it’s a hat to keep your head warm and stylish, a headcover after hair loss, a modesty head cover, or a hat to compliment your dress on your wedding day; making you happy, makes me happy! 

Please contact me and let's custom make your next wonderful hat together!
