It’s the moment you’ve all been waiting for! Our new hats and fascinators were extremely popular at last week’s Moda show and today we reveal the bestselling new styles from our Autumn Winter 2011 & Spring Summer 2012 Collections.
Hats
First of all, this stunning BM189H oozes sophistication and femininity with delicate petals and silver crystals.

We took this hat in both purple and pink shades. The pink was on our mannequin, paired with a Jaego outfit.

The BM185H incorporates a beautiful jewelled lace motif with a flurry of feathers and flowers. The sweeping brim completes the contemporary feel of this hat.
You can see that the jewelled lace stands out against deep colours like this blue…

or subtly shimmers against soft shades like this pink.

The classic shape of the BM193H and the autumnal leaf design means this hat was always going to be a bestseller.

Similar to the bestselling BM181H of February’s Moda collection, this BM196H has a soft, sweeping brim and large feather. The updated pleated silk and pearl and crystal brooch detail are finished off perfectly with millinery net.

Fascinators
First up is the Zara Phillips inspired FQ198. This is a real head-turner with its swirls of sinamay, crystal decoration and regimented shape.

The FQ194 is just as striking and continues the trend for asymmetrical discs. You can see here that the flower decoration continues underneath the brim, ensuring you look the part from all angles!

Next is the FQ190, a small disc fascinator adorned with pretty handmade flowers.

And finally, the FQ184 is luxuriously elegant, with the silk pleats a backdrop to the pearl and crystal brooch. The small face veil is very in keeping with our 1940s inspiration.

So there you have it, the hats and fascinators you can expect to see lining the occasion-wear shelves in the coming seasons. These and other new styles have been added to the hat and fascinator galleries, so make sure to take a look!
