Make Mrs Maisel's Catskills Hat | Vintage Pleated Nautilus Infinity Ribbon Wire Frame Hat

This is my version of how to make Mrs Maisel's pleated ribbon cocktail hat from her holiday in the Catskills. I will go over a vintage millinery technique of making wire frame base hats, types of wire coverings, and of course how to pleat petersham ribbon. As usual I'll give you some variations to try. Just remember, this is my preferred method, there is no right or wrong way, just whatever works for you 😊 → Follow me ← Instagram: @byilonamillinery Patreon: https://www.patreon.com/ByIlonaMillinery Ko-fi: https://ko-fi.com/byilonamillinery Website: https://www.byilona.co.uk → Pinterest ← https://www.pinterest.co.uk/byilonamillinery/pleated-nautilus-hats/ → Materials for Foundations ← Poupee Head Clingfilm Sharpie markers Measuring tape Pliers Sewing kit Mini clothes pegs Millinery wire - 1mm thick Petersham Ribbon - 25mm wide Velvet rouleau (or any other wire covering) Cork boards Pins → Chapters ← 00:00 - Introduction 00:40 - Tools & Materials 01:12 - Make a Wire Frame 4:13 - What Ribbons To Use 5:12 - Pleating Methods 10:16 - Making the Infinity Hat 11:54 - Nautilus Curls 16:51 - Closing Thoughts #DIYhat #millinery #hatmaking Please do not produce exact copies of by Ilona Millinery hat designs for your own commercial purposes.
