In a bright and airy Brooklyn studio, Lola and her team are making some of the loveliest hats you’ll ever see.
The Bushwick millinery has been designing and manufacturing hats for nearly 20 years. What began as a small shop in the East Village selling to locals, has now burgeoned into a global brand. So what makes a Lola hat unique?
Each hat is handmade – first stretched on a block and then pressed by hand. All the finishing touches and trims are hand sewn. From fedoras to visors, wide brimmed sun hats to classic toppers, Lola is making something for literally everyone. Maybe you’ve seen them in magazines like Vogue or Elle, or in stores like Barney’s or Neiman Marcus.
Selling at such lavish retailers as those, you might think small peeps like us can forget about getting our paws on one. But, no, quite the opposite in fact. Every Friday Lola Hats hosts a pop-up boutique in their studio – so if you’re in Brooklyn, stop by! Can’t make it to NYC? No worries – Lola Hats has an online boutique, as well, and you can shop it by clicking ↓
