Materials of distinction

When you buy race hats online, you indulge in the luxury of premium materials carefully selected for their beauty and quality. Our headpieces are crafted from:

  • Lightweight, breathable sinamay for sun-drenched summer afternoons
  • Lustrous felt for a touch of spring sophistication
  • Delicate lace and intricate ribbons for an air of romance and femininity
  • Shimmering silk and satin that catch the light as you move

Each material is chosen for its aesthetic appeal and ability to withstand the potential elements during the races in Australia. All racing hats for sale will make you look your best, no matter what.

Hottest palette

Black and white are classics. While these will always have their place trackside, you can also find a spectrum of rich tones to add vibrancy to your race day look. To make your search easier, select the desired hue on your left.

Our Australian designers curate palettes that align with the latest fashion trends and maintain appeal over the years. From bold jewel shades that demand attention to subtle tones that whisper refinement, you can choose the colour of spring racing carnival hats to harmonise with or beautifully contrast your attire.

Besides, you can switch colours and styles that can be worn in multiple ways or paired with different outfits throughout the carnival season.

Unexpected accents

Our millinery artists are no strangers to pushing the envelope with unique embellishments that turn summer/spring racing headbands and hats into true works of art:

  • Sculptural silhouettes. Soaring shapes and dramatic angles can spice up classic designs like nothing else.
  • Nature-inspired motifs. Floral embellishments and feather accents bring a touch of whimsy and natural beauty to your look.
  • Thoughtful embellishments. Delicate veiling and oversized bows add an air of mystery, while neatly placed crystals let you literally sparkle.

When we create hats for the races in Australia, we experiment with mixed materials and combine smooth and textured surfaces. That’s how you can indulge in pieces that are as intriguing to touch as they are to behold.
