THE MILLINER

Maggie Mowbray originally trained in Fine Art. Her unconventional route into hat and fascinator design gave Maggie a valuable understanding of colour, composition and form. Her uniquely creative style is undoubtedly shaped by her training as a visual artist. 
 
Maggie began her journey creating millinery as a way to express her creativity and work part time while raising her two daughters. The business soon flourished as a result of her unique design and customer focus with many loyal customers, who also happily recommend her work to their friends.
 
Maggie's millinery designs are modern, sculptural wearable art pieces with details and lines composed in such a way as to provide balance and flattering compositions. Her designs have led to her being awarded many industry awards and being coveted and worn by royalty and celebrities.
 
Maggie creates all her hat designs from initial design conception, to final creation, in her studio near Edinburgh, Scotland.  Her hats and headpieces are available to try on an appointment basis in her central Edinburgh Showroom.
