Gina Foster Millinery

When talking about Millinery in Australia we are so blessed to have so many talented, unique talents, but when you step of the plane and head for Royal Ascot and sit among the British Aristocracy, I am sorry, but I will let you know you are being judged from Head to Toe. It is ruthless and stiff upper lip and you will not hear a whisper, but trust me if a hair is out of place it will be noticed and you will be put into the group that shall not bear the right to enter the 'Royal Enclosure'. With Royal Ascot coming closer I am delighted to give you a peak into the world of Gina Foster Millinery. The elegance and grace not only of her master craftsmanship but the overseeing of the quality of her fabrics are second to none. The fabric and the way the sisal and sinemay has been blocked, you can see the attention to detail where the sisal line meets the edge of the block where I have been mentored by a Master Milliner to look for when assessing detail. When mentioning the name of Gina Foster Millinery, this is not a new name, as has featured on the Front of 'The Hat' magazine and also adorned by Duchess Catherine of Cambridge, need you look further. This work is sublime and perfection personified.
