WEAR A HAT WITH CONFIDENCE
Whether you’re an avid hat enthusiast or a hesitant hat wearer, we want to design you a hat that makes you stand tall. We are dedicated to making you look and feel fabulous for life’s important occasions. We take great pride in understanding your preferences and crafting a hat that perfectly captures all your needs and helping you radiate confidence and elevate your look.
HANDMADE IN LONDON
At Bee Smith Millinery, every hat and headpiece is handmade at our Kingston studio. We place sustainability at the core of our process, choosing materials responsibly, sourcing locally within the UK whenever possible, and strictly avoiding the use of fur. We are committed to reducing the environmental impact of our products – we will not always get this right but it is a work in progress.
We encourage our customers to invest in pieces they love, with the hope that they will treasure each design for years to come. Additionally, we offer a hat hire collection, as well as repair and restyle services.
