The story behind DIVA is inspired by the women of Film Noir who, escaping their tragic destinies, embark on an adventure together by joining a runaway circus. These are the hats that the characters played by Joan Crawford and Lauren Bacall would have worn as glamorous ring masters, fire eaters and beautiful acrobats.

The designs in this collection pay homage to the period of the 1940’s and 1950’s whilst embodying a modernist structure. Colours are bold and rich with red, gold and black punctuated with animal print. The hats, manufactured by hand in London, feature glistening PVC, glittered quills, ostrich feathers, veiling and jewels.
