New and Exclusive Hat & Fascinator Colours for 2012 & 2013

Tuesday, February 7th, 2012

It’s that time of year again! We are kicking off our show season with a visit to Moda UK (19th – 21st February) to show our stunning Boutique Collection hats and fascinators alongside a very special gown collection. Today we will be revealing our new colour palettes for 2012 & 2013.

Each season our designers use their magic to predict the hottest upcoming colours. This year the mood is subtle and subdued, with the five new colours being soft in nature, with shots of saturated tones for interest. Here is our Head Designer Kelly explaining what to expect for the coming season:

“The Boutique Collection for the upcoming season Spring and Autumn 2012 is developed to offer a wide choice of our most popular styles and shapes at the Moda show, along with insights into 2013 palettes.  We have extensively researched the key colour trends within occasion wear and are confident that you will find the perfect colour collaboration for the garments that you will be purchasing at the show and will be anticipating delivery of for the Spring Summer season.

Occasionwear Colour Palette 2012-2013

We have introduced five new colours to our already extensive colour book each designed to enhance the collection with trend-led and flattering shades to suit all.  These include Camellia, a vibrant coral pink, Bridal Rose, a soft and sophisticated dusty pink, Sweet Pea a more modern twist on sweet lilac, Glacier, a soft silvery blue, and finally Buff a more neutral version of Nude, the colour of 2011, and which continues to dominate 2012. Buff compliments brights and blends with all tones, and is flattering on most complexions and hair colours.”

Bestselling New Hats & Fascinators from Moda August 2011

Tuesday, August 23rd, 2011

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.

Boutique Collection Occasionwear Hat BM189H

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!

If you would like to see the new collection of hats and fascinators, we will be showing them at the British Bridal Exhibition, Harrogate on Stand M30.
