In this masterclass you will learn how to create an elegant crinoline head band, made entirely of crinoline, one of Carmen Syed’s favorite millinery materials. It looks more impressive if you will use metallic crinoline, but any crinoline of your choice will be turned into a wonderful headpiece.

During this masterclass you will be taught first of all how to manipulate the crinoline in a delicate way, how to cut it and how to secure the edges in the neatest manner, and how to prepare the base for this versatile headpiece.

Once all the parts for the headpiece will be ready, Carmen will guide you step by step through the processes of pinning them on the headband and stitching them in a way that is neat and secure.

Carmen will also teach you few tips on how to ‘’tame’’ the crinoline and how to stay safe during the entire process.

Any question you might have along the entire process will be answered immediately, as well as during the Q&A session at the end of the lesson.
