Patrizia Fabri Hats
Antica Manifattura Cappelli

The art of making hats

From first idea to effective practical making, it is a complicated world where technology does not exist because production remains entirely hand-made. The designer Patrizia Fabri, who after via dell’Oca in Rome, has just opened a shop in Milan in Corso Monforte 25, relates the fashion history trough “savoir faire”. Her 2 thousand ancient wooden moulds, collected in the past years, became a manual of history telling over a century of cap.

The art of knowing how-to-do

It is a unique experience to see a hat born with vapour, to observe capable hands of the hat maker modelling felt.

This ancient action, rooted in Italian how-to-do, remains a precious and exceptional gift.

We are not many who preserve and transmit the ancient tradition of making hats, an intouched art with a slow rhythm, far from industrial products.

Each hat is result of dialogue of craftsman with its creation, taking care of each step until reaching perfect final making.

A matter of style

Elegant, unique and having irresistible allure, the hat is a style timeless icon, a top must-have in world of fashion.

Either a winter felt cap or a cute little straw for hot season, the hat continues to have its evergreen charme, completes and makes the most of every season look.

Maybe a little bit forgotten in the past few years, it has strongly come back on fashion walks.

So much creativity and so much passion couldn’t escape to famous griffes: Valentino, Capucci, Givenchy, Elie Saab, Gattinoni, Sergio Rossi, Fausto Puglisi have many times brought our art on their fashion walks. Same thing for international artists as Madonna, Lady Gaga, Negramaro for whom we created unique pieces for their concerts. And we also have been “on the scene” of many stages such as Massimo theatre in Palermo, San Carlo in Naples, Opera in Rome, Berlin and Montecarlo.
