RoseHip Hat Studios

I have been designing and hand-crafting original hats since 1993, and continue a life-long passion of creating shapes and textures using stitches and exquisite textiles. My designs could be described as a range between the classic and romantic to the more practical and versatile. I work with the finest of natural fabric treasures - vintage textiles, recycled materials, hemp and other 'earthy' fibres. Each hat is one-of-a-kind and made with great attention to detail.
