Yellow Paper Braid Floating Millinery Boater Hat with Bow – Race Day, Spring Racing & Garden Party Hat by Melissa Rath Millinery

A joyfully vibrant and beautifully constructed yellow paper braid floating millinery boater hat with bow — a show-stopping and artisanally crafted piece where yellow paper braid is hand-woven over a wooden block and carefully stiffened and wired to create a structured and enduring boater silhouette, topped with a stunning yellow paper braid bow that floats above the hat to add a jaunty and playful flourish that catches the eye from every angle.

Handcrafted in Central West New South Wales, the hand-weaving, stiffening, and wiring process ensures a hat of real quality, longevity, and structural integrity. The whole piece is mounted onto a nude-coloured wire headband that holds the hat in its elevated floating position with confidence and ease.

A wonderfully sunny and spirited choice for race day, Spring Racing Season, garden parties, and weddings — a piece that radiates warmth, personality, and Australian millinery craftsmanship at its most playful and skilled. Suited to women of all ages.

Perfect for Spring Racing Carnival, Melbourne Cup, Oaks Day, garden weddings, and garden parties. The sunny yellow palette pairs beautifully with yellow, white, green, navy, and floral ensembles.

Each piece arrives in a black hat box, making it a wonderful gift or a stylish way to store and protect your hat between wearings.
