thomas.york millinery was founded by Kate Thomas after studying at Leeds College of Art and latterly on the HNC course at Morley College in Chelsea, London.

Her work fuses sleek silhouettes with surface manipulation techniques which, combined with traditional couture skills, creates sumptuous, rich and luxurious headpieces.

Choosing thomas.york millinery for your headpiece means you are supporting a small, artisan brand working to keep traditional hat-making skills alive and create truly original headwear.

Using traditional techniques and sustainable practices each. piece is created by hand in my studio. Please contact me if you would like a bespoke verion of a design making, perhaps to include some dress fabric or a hand-made floral mount picking out certain colours, which would be priced separately.
