Read the press release below.
The 2019 HATalk Hat Making Competition has started!
The HATalk Competition is open to anyone, anywhere in the world, and is completely free to enter. The closing date is 15 February 2019.
This year, we are challenging you to create an original hat or headpiece using the concept of equilibrium as the starting point for your design. This is an abstract theme which can be defined and interpreted in any number of ways. As always, we want you to be as creative as possible!
Four winners will be chosen by our expert judges, who will base their decisions on quality of workmanship, originality of design and theme interpretation. One Public Prize winner will then be chosen through an online vote.
A fantastic selection of prizes, valuing approximately $4,500 USD, are on offer from some of our top partners:
- Chateau Dumas
- Guy Morse-Brown Hat Blocks
- Parkin Fabrics
- Plooij Hats and Materials
- M&S Schmalberg
- The Trimming Company
- Lily M Millinery Supplies
- Torb & Reiner
- Atelier Millinery
- How2hats
As an added bonus, HATalk has partnered with X Terrace to secure a place for all five winning hats to be included in the official exhibition of London Hat Week 2019 at The Menier Gallery in Central London from 3-12 April, 2019.
