British born and raised, Louise studied fine arts in her university education. Less formally, the streets and people of London instilled a fascination for the richness of the past and a passion for ornamentation and color. By the time Louise came to the United States in 1984 she was able to combine these passions with an intuitive sense of design. Within three years she had begun her journey as a milliner. Immediately the hats were selling at the most exclusive boutiques in Los Angeles. The press praised her as a masterful designer and a prominent drive in the resurgence of hats."I have always loved to wear hats. I realized early on in my career as a milliner that most women had lost the art of wearing a hat with confidence. With that in mind, I set out to create a line of luscious, romantic hats that are comfortable and easy to wear. Each season, I study upcoming trends in ready-to-wear, looking at clothing silhouettes and color. From that knowledge, I choose the shapes and a color palette that is new and also flattering to the complexion. Trims are sourced from all over the world and put together to create a wearable work of art".Since its inception, the business has grown from serving an elite West Los Angeles clientele to include many of the finer boutiques and department stores across the United States and around the world.
