What Is Millinery?

Millinery is a creative art

Millinery is a creative art. It is the art of designing, making and selling hats which are specially designed for women. Cowboy hats have a long history and have been worn for hundreds of years. Women also followed the trend and started wearing hats that were very much in fashion until their popularity declined in the mid 1950s.

Since 1960s, when bouffant and teased hair styles became popular, women have rarely worn hats, as they were no longer seen as a fashion accessory, and were only worn during the hottest days of summer to protect against the sun and during the coldest days of winter for warmth.

The long absence ended when hats became a fashion accessory once again back in 1980s with the return of dresses, skirts and jeans. Back then they were often used as a headpiece for weddings and were also designed for theatrical costumes and historical shows.

The trend of wearing millinery for a wedding has been popular since 1980s. Women are always looking for a smart, stylish wedding headpiece or perhaps one commonly known as a fascinator, that is perfectly suited to their wedding dress as well as their personality. These fascinators are available in a wide range of styles, colours, designs and sizes. Fascinators have become the modern alternative to hats for women. A millinery fascinator is a headpiece made from lace, wool or fabric and is generally decorated with beads, flowers and feathers and attached to the head with a clip, comb or a headband, and available in an array of styles, designs and colours. This is why millinery, especially fascinators are considered the loveliest choice when it comes to womens hats. As said earlier, they are the most popular head accessory these days, especially for weddings and other social occasions.

For an individual there is a vast array of options from which to choose and they are readily available at a nearby store and online at millinery supplies websites, which showcase some of the best millinery products and supplies at very competitive prices.

So, apart from the above, what makes a fascinator the best choice in womens millinery? Well, the answer lies in its versatility and custom design. Apart from the seemingly endless availability of styles, colours and sizes; one can custom design her own millinery. There are many millinery supplies available including clips, flowers, feathers assorted roses, beads, crystals, hat bases, nets and more allowing a woman to design her own individual accessory for her wedding or any special occasion.
