Wide-Brim Straw Halo Hat with Ivory Silk Peonies

An architectural take on romantic occasion millinery, this wide-brim halo hat frames the head with a sweeping circle of natural-toned straw. The open crown creates a light, almost floating silhouette, while a generous arrangement of ivory peonies brings softness and dimension to the sculptural shape.

Designed to be worn at an angle, the flowers sit to one side of the head while the broad brim creates an elegant frame from every direction. A discreet internal comb helps secure the hat in position.

A statement piece for weddings, garden parties, race days and summer occasions.

STYLE NOTES

The oversized circular brim is balanced by a cluster of softly layered ivory peonies, creating contrast between clean architectural form and abundant florals.

The open-centre construction allows the wearer's hair to remain visible and makes the hat feel lighter than a traditional full-crown wide-brim hat. Its asymmetric placement is particularly striking from the side and back, making it a beautiful choice for occasions where the hat will be seen from every angle.

ITEM CARE

Millinery should always be handled with care.

Store the hat in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight and moisture. When handling, hold the piece by the hat base rather than by the flowers.

Do not crush, fold or place heavy objects on top of the brim. Avoid wearing in rain or exposing the hat to steam, perfume, hairspray or other liquids, as these may affect the shape, colour or finish.

Light surface dust may be removed gently with a clean, soft brush. Do not wash or dry clean.

For long-term storage, we recommend keeping the hat supported in a hat box.

STYLING TIPS

Wear tilted towards the back of the head, allowing the circular brim to frame the face while the ivory flowers sit prominently to one side.

The warm straw and ivory palette pairs beautifully with forest green, navy, chocolate brown, soft blue, blush, butter yellow and tonal ivory. For a more formal look, style with a tailored midi dress or structured suit; for a summer wedding or garden party, pair with silk, linen or softly printed dresses.

Pearl earrings work particularly well with the ivory flowers, while keeping other accessories restrained allows the scale of the hat to remain the focus.
