explore the world of elise gustilo millinery and discover the perfect hat or headpiece for your occasion


You’ve been scouring the shops, internet and boutiques, uninspired by the same hat discs, feathered fascinators and flowers. Showstoppers that are gluegunned together.  Unflattering hat proportions and colours convincing you that hats just aren’t for you.

At Elise Gustilo, I like to do things differently. When I design, I love to experiment. I make hats with scientific curiosity - testing, playing and creating until something makes me feel that familiar thrill of excitement. That’s when I know I’ve got it right. I’m here to bring you inspiring, forward-thinking headwear. Always elegant. And not too serious.

From weddings and opera nights to Ascot and beyond, my hats are about giving you the wow factor. Quality and craftsmanship are central to every piece I make in my London millinery studio, whether you’re looking for headwear as the main event or to accent your outfit. 

All designs are made to order and are expertly tailored to you.

Warning. My hats aren’t for wallflowers.  But I’ll always make sure you stand out for the right reasons.

It’s not all about  race days and weddings. I also provide hats for afternoon tea and garden parties, Bar Mitzvahs and Bat Mitzvahs, baptisms and communions, graduation ceremonies and a host of other occasions.  If you’re after headwear for fashion or press events, drop me an email or give me a call.
