Raffique, 2008

Raffique is hat designer and maker Julie Hurst. All hats are mad by Julie in her studio using high quality Madagascan raffia. Click here to view the Raffique website.

Julie's inspiration for her raffia hats comes from nature and particularly the beach and the sea. We wanted to put the hats into a landscape where, not only their inspiration was borne from, but where they will ultimately be used; that is, on a sunny day out by the sea.
