Millinery Workshops

Come and celebrate Melbourne Spring Fashion Week at Champions 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 no matter if you’re a beginner the outcome will be a professional looking head piece
through the committed guidance of the people at Torb and Reiner.
Workshops take place on the Ground Floor, at Champions - Australian Racing Museum. PICK YOUR WORKSHOP BELOW.
