In celebration of a momentous year, British Milliner Vivien Sheriff has created a unique new range of Britannia themed hats and headpieces, to launch in Fortnum & Mason at the beginning of June.
Staying true to Vivien’s iconic, ‘English heritage’ signature style, down to every last feather and detail, each piece from the Britannia collection encapsulates the colour palette of the Union Jack.
Fashion and accessories buyer at Fortnum & Mason Amanda Ware comments: “The pieces land in-store just in time for the start of the Great British racing season, all three styles make a statement, capturing the essence of British spirit. Vivien Sheriff Designs have always been popular at Fortnum & Mason so we’re really excited to see our customer’s reaction to the range; we’re expecting them to be a huge hit, particularly for Ladies Day at Royal Ascot.”
Adding to Vivien Sheriff’s existing and eclectic collection of designs at Fortnum & Mason, the new pieces can be found in the millinery department on the Second Floor. The Britannia range is made up of three distinct styles:
· Calypso Britannia – feathered Union Jack style head piece £595
· Union Jack – Union Jack hat with feathers £730
· Fleur Britannia – Union Jack Fleur headpiece £99
