Philadelphia Philpot - Fabulous Hats & Headpieces

fabulous Hats and Headpieces

the word couture conjures images of luxury, exclusivity and artisanship

Fashion is architecture: it is a matter of proportion"

Coco Chanel

Wendi's hats are truly unique...

She has NEVER repeated a

design in over 20 years

They are truly one off pieces.

They are lovingly blocked into

shape in the traditional way by steaming on vintage, wooden

hat blocks.

After she is satisfied that the

shape suits the client, the hats

are stiffened and the crowns

and brims are sewn together.

Then the exciting part starts!

Wendi usually makes most of her trims, and all feathers, flowers

and beads are hand-sewn onto

the hat.

Not a drop of glue is ever used except for the Philpot label

inside the hat.. a true milliner!

Her hats are a fabulous investment. Wendi can give your hats a little 'facelift'.They can be re-modelled for another occasion or race day, and will last you for years.

"Thank you so much for the hat.

I felt a million bucks.

You are a star!"

Shelly Horton

Wendi is one of Sydney’s most talented milliners. Her eye for detail and style ensures every hat is an elegant work of art…

I don’t feel dressed unless I have one of her hats on!

"Hats have to fit your style, shape and your personality.

A gorgeous hat has to be totally created just for you." Wendi
