An asymmetric wide-brim blue hat built on a 100% A-Grade sinamay base in soft pastel tone, the silhouette angling gracefully from right to left and tilted to the right side of the head. The brim is decorated with delicately pressed natural yellow and blue flowers, embellishing the surface with a motif so finely worked that it reads as an almost three-dimensional print effect across the structure. The expansive brim and lightweight construction hold style and comfort in considered balance, while the all-natural sinamay base makes the piece vegan-friendly in its entirety. Selected for the official Royal Ascot Style Guide 2025, the hat reads as both refined sun-protective companion and statement race-day piece. Hand-made in our London atelier by Merve Bayindir Millinery, a member of the British Fashion Council, Twilight Petal is finished to a couture standard, a celebration of natural elements in considered, earthy elegance.
Event: Royal Ascot, Derby, formal outdoor weddings, elegant summer garden parties, and considered race-day celebrations.
Styling: Wear Twilight Petal tilted to the right with the brim angling gracefully from right to left, the pressed floral motif catching the eye across the silhouette in soft, considered focus. Pair the piece with a soft sky blue, dove-grey, butter yellow or ivory ensemble, a fluid summer midi or a tailored linen race-day silhouette both giving the wide brim the calm canvas its floral surface asks for. Hair styled into a low chignon or a softly polished bun keeps the line of the brim clean from every angle. Finish with fine gold drop earrings, a slim leather clutch and a soft rose lip, restrained choices that match the earthy, natural register of the piece.
