This striking ready-to-wear pillbox fascinator is one of a kind - and once it has sold, it is gone for good. I create every piece in my Rose Garden Studio here in Winchester, Hampshire, so if you are searching for a Mother of the Bride or Mother of the Groom wedding hat that combines real drama with polished elegance, or something eye-catching for Ladies Day at Royal Ascot, this design offers both with a great deal of individual character.
The foundation is a 6" black buntal base, fitted with a metal comb and millinery elastic so that it sits securely and comfortably throughout the day - no wobbling, no need to touch it, and no fussing in photographs. On the crown, I have set a softly gathered bubble of ivory crin veiling, which floats gently as you move. Above this, a generous triple-layered sinamay bow in natural and nude tones billows out gracefully, adding visual volume without any weight. The bow is cinched with a ribbon of shimmering bronze-coloured sequin ribbon, which catches the light beautifully and ties the whole colour story together. To complete the design, a striped quill and a curling Peter Pan feather sweep dramatically upwards and over the piece, giving the hat real height and presence from every angle.
This design is a wonderful choice for a Mother of the Bride or Mother of the Groom who would like to add height and drama to her wedding outfit. The colour combination of black, ivory and natural tones works beautifully alongside a wide range of outfits and complexions. It would also be an excellent choice for a top-table guest, a Royal Enclosure ticket holder at Ladies Day, or perhaps an Investiture or Garden Party celebration.

You can also read more about why so many Mothers of the Bride choose Marvellous Millinery for this important day. And if you would prefer something created entirely around your own outfit and colouring, you are very welcome to arrange a private bespoke consultation at my Winchester studio instead.
Please read the wedding hat etiquette guide if you have questions about when to wear your hat on the day and how to coordinate with other guests.
