Let Your Hat Steal the Show with Halo

Every June, as Royal Ascot rolls around, the focus may be on the racetrack—but the true spectacle is often found in the stands. Because while the horses gallop for glory, it’s the hats that truly stop traffic.
For me, as founder of Halo Studio in Dromore, it’s a time to celebrate storytelling through style. My handcrafted headpieces are not just accessories—they’re expressions of personality, imagination, and creativity. Each one is made to meet the Ascot standard, but more importantly, to reflect the wearer’s essence.
Hats with Heart and Heritage
At Halo Studio, the design process is entirely personal. Every client begins with a one-to-one consultation. We talk outfit, occasion, silhouette—and most importantly—the emotion they want to evoke. From there, I craft a bespoke piece that’s blocked, hand-dyed, and trimmed with precision. Whether it’s a wide brim dipped in silk roses or a sculptural crown inspired by Irish folklore, each piece is carefully created to express individuality.
Ascot, with its legacy dating back to 1711, has always been about more than just racing. From the early 1800s, it’s been a stage for fashion. And hats? They’ve always been the stars. From pillboxes to satellite-style designs, milliners like Philip Treacy have redefined what a hat can be.
Why Royal Ascot is the Ultimate Stage
The Royal Enclosure’s strict dress code has elevated headwear from accessory to necessity. A hat isn’t just a final touch—it’s a symbol of elegance, status, and confidence. It should never just match the dress—it should tell a story.
And that’s where Halo Studio stands apart. Each piece I create is wearable art—a crown that completes your look. It’s not throwaway fashion. It’s made to be treasured.
The Future of Headwear
In a world where fast fashion dominates, sustainable design matters more than ever. At Halo Studio, each hat is created with care, meaning, and a deep respect for traditional craftsmanship.
Whether you’re off to the races or simply dressing up to celebrate the day your way, remember: the horses may win the trophies, but the hats win the hearts.
