Our Story

Blue ribbon headband

 

  

Headpieces are all made by hand in our Wiltshire studio

 

Welcome to world of Willow & Hermione Millinery! Where we are passionate about colour and creating bespoke sculptural pieces.

Katie designs and hand makes all of the pieces at Willow and Hermione millinery, she loved wearing hats when she was young and had a dream of one day becoming a milliner. 

Katie works from her studio in Warminster Wiltshire, usually with her three dogs around her feet, creating designs for the fun loving woman who enjoys a bit of colour and sparkle in her life!

 

Having studied womenswear Design and Technology at The London College of Fashion, making was where her heart was although not in clothes! It was the freedom of sculpture that she loved about making hats, that it’s not always easy to recreate a sculptural piece, so each one truly is a one-off. 

 

It was in 2017 that she finally embarked on a journey into millinery, making wearable headbands and hats, at first it was fabric based stretch headbands and then going on to train with Katherine Elizabeth to gain her millinery skills.

 

Katie is a member of The British Millinery Association, she has exhibited at some fantastic events over the years, The Spirit of Christmas, Badminton Horse Trials and Bath Christmas market.

 

Willow and Hermione headpieces have also been seen in Femail of The Daily Mail and Vogue, also winning the SME Enterprise awards 2024 for Best Handmade Hair accessories Company - Wiltshire.

 

Katie loves meeting people at the events and helping them with their perfect headpiece. Celebrating the wearers personality through their headpiece to enable them to feel incredibly confident and comfortable.
