It’s the last day to bid on these fabulous hats, check out the link in the bio, auction ends midnight tonight (Sunday 12th June)
Some of the UK’s leading milliners have created a one-off collection of hats inspired by the seven decades of The Queen’s reign to be auctioned in aid of Brain Tumour Research.
The collection of 15, which is entitled “Hats Fit For A Queen” and includes pieces by Royal milliners Stephen Jones OBE and Rachel Trevor-Morgan, is being auctioned and available until midnight on Sunday 12th June.
The hats will be displayed in the Queen’s Stand at Epsom Downs Racecourse for both days of The Cazoo Derby on Friday 3rd & Saturday 4th June.
This year’s Derby takes place across the central weekend of Platinum Jubilee Celebrations when Her Majesty The Queen is set to attend Derby Day for the 73rd time, her first since 2019.
The one-off collection of 15 hats will be auctioned online until midnight Sunday, 12th June. The auction can be found online here. https://app.galabid.com/hatsfitforaqueen
The milliners who generously agreed to be involved in the project have each chosen a decade of the Queen’s reign from the 1950s to the 2010s onwards for inspiration. The successful bidder on each hat will also receive a one-off signed illustration.

Happy birthday to a legendary milliner from London.
He created some pretty iconic hats for fashion designers like Walter Van Beirendonck, John Galliano at Dior, Vivienne Westwood, etc.
Aswell for musicians Björk, Pink and Marilyn Manson.
