Headbands with Style
Beginner-Advanced
As a milliner working in Hong Kong, a place where wearing hats is not a common practice, Jaycow had to find a way of getting her creations on people's Head’s!
She came up with headbands....to sneak up on the ladies.
Headbands are an accessory item that almost all people are familiar with and something that milliners can still apply their skills.
In this workshop participants will jump the fence of millinery materials and give headbands a new face lift. Using readymade headbands and a different view on materials, fun and contemporary headbands can be a new version of fashionable millinery.
Jay will have a goodie box with materials such as fancy cords, buckles , crystals , beads and even a curling iron for everyone to whip up something fun and funky.
As a hat lover, Jaycow has always had a thing for finding beautiful hats.
From a nice fitting newsboy cap to a hand blocked fedora, she beams with joy whenever she finds a gem. Working simply as a stylist wasn’t enough for Jaycow anymore. So why not make hats? So she dropped everything, packed her bags, flew to London and learned millinery at the London College of Fashion, as well as from Royal Milliner Rose Corey. Now, Jaycow is a combination of milliner/stylist. With her cut and sew collection, her styling skills are in full swing. Not only does she put together interesting fabric combinations for her designs, she also hand decorates them with love.
Jaycow’s hats are not for people who have bad hair days. They are for hat lovers who have wit, humour and joie de vivre.
