Millinery – Bundle MacLaren’s Indigo Collection

Nessie £69, Iris £128, Alie £69, Edie £89 all by Bundle MacLaren

Bundle MacLaren is one of the most exciting milliners around. She sent me the lookbook for her Indigo Collection earlier this year and I’ve been in love with her designs ever since. When I’m styling a shoot I always have her in the back of my mind and as soon as I find something that fits, she’ll sure hear from me. Her creations are a little eccentric, yes. But they also have a very soft, feminine quality to them that makes them more wearable than most other Ascot contenders out there. And definitely more stylish than your standard fascinator in, say, John Lewis. I just wish I’d known her last year when I went to Lady’s Day!

Now you’re probably thinking that Bundle’s hats must be very expensive because, well, they look expensive. But that’s not the case. Her prices start at as little as £35 and the priciest piece in the collection is £129.

Check out her work at www.bundlemaclaren.co.uk! There’s the Indigo Collection from which the images above were taken but there also are the equally gorgeous Papillon and Arcadia collections to choose from. Bundle’s hats and headpieces have already been featured in Vogue and she was commissioned to make no less than 12 pieces for the Royal Wedding, so get on the bandwagon now!
