Millinery – Hat Making
Program Overview
The meaning of “Millinery” comes from the French language, and it means a fashion lover. The major talent of a hatmaker is creating new trends, realizing accessories that range from simple headgear to real artistic creations that complete the customer's look.
The program is essentially practical, consisting of workshops that aim to teach an ancient craft, blending tradition with innovation. The course focuses on the study of patterns and the realization of various hat and accessory types (headbands, facial tissues, and combs for brides), teaching students to identify the right materials and the correct measurements.
After acquiring the basic tools, they study decoration techniques such as making fabric flowers, dyeing, and embroidery applications on the framework. They also delve into materials and technical terminologies.
