While @chrismullanemillinery recently made the final 20 of @mimc_competition 2021 with her piece titled "Pearls of Wisdom", here is a look back at her entries over the last 4 years.

In 2019 @chrismullanemillinery won this prestigious competition with a headpiece titled Metallic Flock, which was inspired by the women's movement. The flock represents women of different races, religion and background, working together, supporting each other and rising as a collective group.

@chrismullanemillinery enjoys making her own hat blocks, not only to add to her block collection but more importantly to create individual styled hats.

This asymmetrical brimmed hat was realised from specially crafted blocks.

The craft of creating blocks is taught by @ianbennetthats online via @hatacademy

Tools of the trade, Fiona @millinerylaalaa starts

Tools of the trade, Fiona @millinerylaalaa starts the design process by looking through her block collection to be inspired by vintage and new shapes. A block can be used in more ways than the it was originally intended - get creative and think outside the "block". Some of the best blocks she works with are from @hat_blocks_australia
