Named for the always elegant Grace Kelly, this formal version of the pillbox hat is stiffened with a buckram insert. These smaller hats are meant to perch on top of the head, held in place with a hat pin or by sewing combs or clips into the edge. Directions are given for customizing the finished size to give you the exact fit desired. This hat is the perfect classic look for a wedding or elegant evening out, and the sky’s the limit when it comes to embellishing. A variety of different veil materials, ribbons, buttons, rhinestones, and beads can be used to make it shine for your special day. The lovely white confection is shown with French netting, a dupioni silk fabric bow, and vintage glass buttons. The over the top red creation is shown with horsehair braid and vintage bakelite buttons.
