Autumn Winter 2024

Structurally inspired by the ornate magnificence of the churches of Naples, with a palette that pays homage to the paintings of Caravaggio. The Autumn Winter 2024 collection by Rachel Skinner Millinery draws lush velvets, rich silks, and textured felts into powerful neutrals and winter berry tones for a collection that flows seamlessly from daylight to darkness, playful to polished - all in Rachel’s signature modern classic aesthetic.

  • “Rachel's shop is the most beautiful little gem of a place! She has a brilliant eye for the most elegant and sophisticated things in life, and her beautifully designed hats and gorgeous shop are testament to that. Rachel has an uncanny knack for knowing exactly what will suit you and will advise accordingly. She's never pushy though, just super friendly and helpful. If you're looking for a hat for an event, then get in touch with her to make an appointment or pop in during her opening hours.”

    Sarah, London

  • “Rachel’s shop is nothing less than magical. The only problem was deciding which of her amazing designs to choose. And the service is sublime; Rachel took her time and was patience personified. She knew exactly what I wanted and what looked good on me. One of the best shopping experiences I’ve had in a very long time.”

    Victoria, Brighton

  • “If you want a chic, professionally made, and personal service, Rachel is your woman. Her expertise is unparalleled and she’s a pleasure to deal with.”

    Charlotte, Reading

    Audria, Lewes

  • “Rachel was amazing. She unpicked my rambling request and thoughts. She spent time understanding me and creating a fantastic hat that made me special and confident. Amazing, would totally recommend.”

    Lilla, London

  • “Following a lovely chat at Rachel's beautiful shop in Lewes, I was thrilled to commission a custom headpiece for my niece's wedding. When the headpiece was ready, I couldn't have been more excited to wear it on the day. Rachel had color-matched the silk flowers perfectly to my dress, creating a piece that was not only beautiful but also uniquely personal to me. It was the perfect finishing touch to my outfit, and I received so many compliments! Rachel's exceptional talent and dedication truly shine through in her work. I can't recommend her highly enough.”

    Annabel, Lewes

  • “Amazing hats, such creative flair and a wonderful person to work with.”

    Janine, Tunbridge Wells

  • “I was recommended to visit Rachel Skinner Millinery for a special occasion head piece. I travelled from London to Lewes and met Rachel at her wonderful little shop just near the station. Managed to colour match my outfit and get my dream hat all within a pretty tight time frame. Rachel was awesome and her amazing history as a milliner truly stood up to the task. The shop is a hidden treasure trove of beautiful designs that can be bought off the peg or designed bespoke. Can’t recommend her enough!!”
