La Plume Boater in Black and Camel

A study in lightness and movement, this wide-brimmed silhouette is crowned with a halo of ostrich feather fronds — soft, ethereal, and endlessly elegant.

Each feather is hand-set along a finely woven parasisal straw base, creating a tactile contrast that is at once playful and refined. Airy and delicate at first glance, the construction is meticulous, designed to hold its shape while moving with the faintest breeze. This is millinery as poetry — a piece that feels alive.

A natural choice for race days, garden parties, and luminous summer occasions, La Plume Boater is destined to become a keepsake. Feather-light on the head, it secures easily and comfortably with an elastic in your hair colour, allowing you to wear it straight or at a tilt.

This is the art of adornment at its most romantic — a hat for women who don’t simply attend the occasion, but make it unforgettable.
