Rebecca Share - Course Tutor

I launched my millinery brand back in 1997 with the goal to share my developed techniques and contribute to the industry I adore. It was my wish to make hat making an ‘at-home’ craft which could be done by complete beginners.

Fast forward 25+ years and the Hat Atelier team and I have taught thousands of students from all over the world. Many of my past students have used the skills to launch new careers and go on to start successful millinery brands of their own!

“Wonderful course taught by Giulia, very happy with my silk flowers, even though I didn’t have all of the tools I was able to improvise to create beautiful flowers, which was brilliant. Her step by step instructions were easy to follow and understand. Would definitely recommend this course, thank you and look forward to any further online courses from Giulia.”

“I want to say a huge thanks to Rebecca for this amazing course.  I was pretty much stuck on blocking leather crowns and you just made my millinery world so much easier to make them. Such great detail in the tutorials and step by step that made me feel so much better in my work.  Also love how I can find where I was last up to and can go back to the section I really wanted to go back to, which has made it way much easier than any other online millinery tutorial platforms.”
