Hats off to Awon Golding – and to you, too!

Feeling crafty? Hong Kong-born milliner (that’s a hat designer, for those who aren’t familiar with the term) and our former That Girl, Awon Golding is returning home from London to host a series of workshops that will let you in on some hat-tricks. In a three-hour workshop, you can learn how to make beautiful personalised veils, donned with Swarovski crystals, pearls, studs and feathers — a sophisticated addition to any festive holiday outfit. If you’re more of a flower-power kind of girl, there will also be workshops to make your own vintage-inspired floral headpieces. Spring weddings, anyone? All materials will be provided and no experience is necessary.
