SPRING SUMMER 2026: COLLECTION LAUNCH

Introducing Our New Collection of Designer Women's Hats for Spring Summer 2026

We are starting the new year off in style, with the launch of our Spring/Summer 2026 collection - a celebration of sport, colour, and British craftsmanship. Inspired by tennis courts and lacrosse fields, each design brings playful elegance to your summer wardrobe - from garden parties to grandstands.

Whether you’re heading to the Kentucky Derby, Dubai World Cup, Royal Ascot, or a Summer wedding or event - we have styles to suit every occasion.

Within the collection you’ll find our classic headpiece designs, as well as new shapes and styles for 2026, each trimmed with either our signature feathering, feminine lace, or faux flower designs. All of our pieces are handmade to order by our talented team, allowing you to create the perfect headpiece to compliment your outfit.

'Croquet' in Blush/Lilac

Statement feathering is a signature style for us here at Vivien Sheriff, we love to create truly showstopping designs, working with the feathers natural beauty and form.

'Discus' in Orange

Of course we have included our characteristic bold colour options, like the above 'Discus' design with its sumptuous satin twists and tonal faux orchid flowers. This style would work equally well at Royal Ascot as it would a wedding.

As each hat and headpiece is made by hand in our Wiltshire studio, we are able to offer both a colour-matching service (have any design made in a colour of your choice) as well as a fully customised option where you can discuss your ideas with our designer and work together to create a one of a kind design.

'Lacrosse' in Blush

The Lacrosse is a nod to a vintage Dior-style shape, with a modern, minimalist trim of oversized veiling and Swarovski crystals. This headpiece is so lightweight and comfortable to wear all day - effortless style at its best.

'Ballet' in Blush

Of course we have some smaller designs for those occasions that call for something a little more compact. The 'Ballet' headpiece is a very wearable halo design on a blocked sinamay base, trimmed with intricate lace and Swarovski crystal finish. This piece can be worn to a garden party, christening, church service or wedding. A beautifully versatile design.

We are excited to have built upon our selection of fine woven straw hat designs, with some more elaborate trims to create pieces that you can style for a summer wedding, a day at the races, or an exotic holiday vacation. You'll find straw pieces like the above 'Centre Court' throughout the SS26 collection.
