CREATIONS IN THE MAKING

Form and matter

The hat is an emblem of its time. It tells of the freedom and identity of the person wearing it. It indicates place and claimed belonging, profession and public posture, revered myths and ideals to be won. At first glance, form and matter can hide or reveal all of this. They are headwear to be read.

FELT ON STAGE

Gala occasions, official uniforms, between the stage and private rooms. When the hat is unmistakable identity and marks the imagination at first sight. From base felt to snapshots from the big screen. Pulled out of the top hat.

STRAW IN THE SUN

The finest weaves of Montecristi Panama straw, worked in Ecuador for centuries. Shaped with care and finished at the edge and around the crown with ribbons and feathers. From the faces of cinema on film, they are the light shade of the Fedora you want on your face.

FABRIC ALWAYS

From Italian, English and Irish woollen mills we select the most sought-after rolls. Essential weaves and repeated patterns alternate on the narrow brim of the Trilby. Further on, cotton and linen frame the gaze beneath the peak of flat caps and baseball caps.
