The latest hat and fascinator trends

My mum wants to wear a hat or fascinator to go with her summer-themed dress. What colours and styles are popular at the moment?

"Some amazing colours will be on-trend in summer 2022, from cool pastel shades, such as pistachio, pinks, lilacs and cool blues, to bright and vibrant pinks, blues and greens. Platinum and silver are also set to be popular this year.

"Many brides and grooms are now considering environmentally-friendly weddings, with ceremonies often taking place outdoors in marquees and tipis. To fit in with the relaxed style, a beautiful natural straw hat with a contrasting parasisal straw crown would look amazing.

"There are also lots of alternatives to the traditional hat or fascinator for the mother-of-the-bride/groom with a great selection of headpieces that can be designed by a milliner to match your outfit and individual style. I would recommend a sinamay halo headpiece or silk abaca style headpiece with silk or leather flowers."
