Brett Morley is a Melbourne based milliner with exquisite attention to detail.
Starting his career as a hair stylist, the transition into a career as a milliner was natural and fitting. His collections employ modern millinery techniques with classic craftsmanship, some pieces taking months to complete.
Most of the petals and leaves you see in his work have actually been hand crafted from feathers, so that every hat is totally unique.
His colour palette is always bold, but the silhouette is ultra feminine which is why he’s been a top 10 finalist for the Oaks Day millinery award at Flemington, and been a guest judge for ‘Fashions on the Field’ at various race meets around Australia.
I was lucky enough to view his current collection, some pieces already having sold. With only a couple of weeks until the major race days you’ll need to get in quickly, but Brett is absolutely worth knowing about as a stand out Melbourne creative even if attending the races isn’t your thing.
