I know we don’t usually use the ‘C’ word before Halloween has been and gone, but this is sort of appropriate..! Our Harry Potter Sorting Ceremony is back by popular demand as part of the Christmas Steps Arts Quarter Festivities Launch! Spaces are limited though! #ChristmasSorted

We’re more than just a tiny bit proud of Sarah, she started her millinery journey with @anistaffordtownsend on our intensive beginners millinery course! And now look at her! #metgala . #Repost @sarahsokolmillinery with @get_repost ・・・ Every designer grows up with one big dream goal and @mandelkorn made mine come true.

We’ve been trying to get a handle on the boxes of stuff before the next few incredibly busy weeks kick off. I’m regretting my life choices, because I’m buried under this box of exploding crin! Looks like candy floss though! One of the reasons we’ve so much to tidy up, it’s that apart from being magpies, we’re also zero waste. So that means we hold onto every usable piece of fabric and materials until we can use it or recycle it into some thing. . . .... #reuse #recycledfashion #britishmade #millinersofinstagram #bristolfashion #christmasstepsartsquarter #millinersguild #whomademyclothes #imademyclothes #repair #ethicalfashion #ethicalclothing #millinery #hatshop #hatshopbristol #ethicalmillinery #zerowaste #zerowastefashion #upcycledfashion #extinctionrebellion #climatechangeisreal #climateaction

A fascinating read about cleaning silk!
We’re already missing the Post Office staff here, they were wonderful & knowledgable. We go to the Post Office on Stokes Croft now, not the WH Smith’s, hopefully we can help keep it open!
Brain Tumour Research is the official charity of many milliners, and it’s actually something quite close to the heart of many Milliners’ Guild Milliners. Many of us have people close to us affected by brain tumours. We also often work with clients experiencing hair loss as a result of cancer treatments. We’re inviting people to make us an offer on our ready to wear items today and tomorrow. Get a bargain and we’ll also donate 10% to Brain Tumour Research, helping them@to con...tinue their work. . . . Cravat : Milliners’ Guild reserve the right to refuse an offer. Items purchased under this offer are non refundable. Ready to wear items only. March 29th & 30th 2019 only. . #wearahatday #wearahat #hatshop #millinersguild #bristolfashion #christmasstepsartsquarter #britishmade #millinersofinstagram #bristol #beatcancer #justgiving #specialoffer #hats #millinery #britishfashion #britishmade @bristol247 @bristollifemag

How did we start? Well, our founder @anistaffordtownsend was looking for boutiques to sell her own millinery brand from and found the options lacking. There were independent milliners in the area, but no actual hat shops in Bristol. And the hat shops in Britain were either milliners selling exclusively their own brand or shops selling high end brands or mass produced items. So as ever, Ani said “someone really should do something... oh ok, I’ll do something”. And so Milliner...s’ Guild was born in 2012. It took until late 2013 for Ani to convince a landlord to rent her a retail unit, and this was our first window display! The pumpkins lit up! . . . #meetthemaker #marchmeetthemaker #christmasstepsartsquarter #britishmade #millinersguild #millinery #hatshop #hatshopbristol #hats #shoplocal

It’s Meet the Maker time. But there are lots of different makers making up Milliners’ Guild. So what’s our combined favourite thing to make? It’s to make our customers smile, just like @mrs.miniver at her daughters wedding. That’s the best thing in the world, happy happy clients with massive smiles, living their best lives! . Thanks to Ceri for the picture.

It’s not often that you get to spend a week with amazing, strong, mindful women, chatting and making hats. But that’s how I’ve spent the last week, in the form of our beginners millinery week course. And they achieved some great hats too. . . .... #bespokemillinery #britishmade #millinery #millinerycourses #bristolfashion #millinersguild
