In a rare interview on ITV’s This Morning, the actress, Barbara Knox, said ” we have the most wonderful milliner in Manchester“
We’re honoured, ma’am
Thought you might like to see a few pictures of the lovely Kate when she came to the H’atelier showroom for her first consultation, with her stylist and make-up supremo, the utterly fabulous CHRISTOPHER RAINE , who was responsible for Kate’s spectacular appearance at the Royal Wedding. Kate was charmingly enthusiastic and had a great time trying on lots of hats

but we feel very honoured to have been asked by Jane Davies OBE to make a hat for her presentation at Buckingham Palace. Our warmest congratulations to Jane , and I’m sure you’ll agree she looks fantastic:
“As you can see, your hat totally ‘made’ my outfit and I felt like a star wearing it. Thank you very much for helping to make my day.”
Jane Davies OBE
And did you notice the hat co-ordinates not only with Jane’s outfit but with the medal AND the palace carpet too ? There’s serendipity for you!
It gives me a huge kick when clients let me have photographs of themselves in their complete outfits, and/or send their kind comments, so here are just a few examples for you to see for yourselves

“…. thank you so much, (my hat) was absolutely beautiful. I can’t tell you how many people said to me – men and women alike – your hat is just gorgeous! My husband thought it was lovely, and it went perfectly with my outfit. It was very comfortable and I just wanted you to know how thrilled I am ……”

“Thought you would be amused to see your ‘creation’ has been on its travels! Went to a fabulous wedding of some French friends of ours. I had by far the most glamorous hat type thing – head and shoulders (ha ha) above its French aristocratic rivals! It was much admired. So you see, your talents are appreciated far and wide!”
