Come and celebrate Melbourne Spring Fashion Week with Torb and Reiner, and let the world of hats take you to places you've never been before. Whether you want to learn about hats, make hats, or just love hats, these events are for you.
The milliners at Torb and Reiner will be on hand for the whole week to educate you on all things millinery. Learn from the experts and participate in a hands-on workshop, or just come along to pick up some quick tips and tricks.
World renowned milliner Waltraud Reiner will be teaching her famous free shaping with Sinamay. Learn to make a fascinator or book a feather workshop and learn the techniques milliners use to manipulate feathers into a wonderful headpiece. There is something for everyone and, even if you are a beginner, the outcome is sure to be a professional looking headpiece thanks to the committed guidance of Torb and Reiner.
Workshops are tailored to suit all skill and experience levels.
Market entry is FREE
The Torb and Reiner millinery market.
For those who wish to simply make a purchase or are short on time, talk to the experts and pick up some quick tips and tricks when making
your own hats. They will be giving demonstrations including how to make a fascinator base from scratch. You can even make a fascinator for the
races in about 20 minutes, or relax and watch a Hatty DVD. A complete range of Millinery Supplies will be available to purchase including a
vibrant range of feathers, DIY kits and DVD's. Bring in a hat and we will show you how to turn into something really special, or better yet
discover it's not so hard to make one yourself.
