This is my version of how to make Mrs Maisel’s pleated ribbon cocktail hat from her holiday in the Catskills. I will go over a vintage millinery technique of making wire frame base hats, types of wire coverings, and of course how to pleat petersham ribbon. As usual I’ll give you some variations to try. Just remember, this is my preferred method, there is no right or wrong way, just whatever works for you 😊
