Wedding Bibi Hat

What is the difference between a wedding fascinator and a hat?

Refinement and elegance are key words when it comes to a wedding ceremony. It's therefore to its credit that the fascinator, which is like a mini hat, stands out as a cross between a hat and a headpiece. Depending on your personality and outfit, the wedding fascinator can become iconic. It is most often a creation, smaller than a hat, mounted on a headband or a comb, or with an elastic band. There are more or less voluminous ones, according to your desire! The advantage of the Bibi is that women wear it easily, it is one size, it does not mess up their hair, it is easy to put on and take off and does not hide in photos... Ideal for women who want to wear a head covering but who are not very "hats"! The bridal fascinator is perfect in this sense, as it decorates without being too imposing. However, you can take a look at the styles of ceremonial hats we carry.

When to wear a fascinator?

Simply during a ceremony, a wedding, or an event like a horse race! It enhances your outfit, lifts you up, and makes you love being a woman...
