The Dublin School of Millinery

At The Dublin School of Millinery, our love for all things hat-related drive us to inspire those who wish to learn this unique craft.  Our team of highly accomplished milliners teach design, technique, and skills in the many diverse areas of hat making.  We offer support and inspiration throughout your millinery learning experience, with an emphasis on allowing you to explore your creative side.

With over 15 dedicated hat making classes plus a variety of specialised workshops we offer a comprehensive range of diversified courses from traditional to modern, to suit all interests.  Through a hands on experience, students are educated in understanding millinery fabrics and specialist techniques.  We are committed to teaching an array of students from the fervent hobbyist to the budding new designer.

The school is built on the industry experience, accomplishments and artistry of its founder Laura Kinsella.  Laura initially worked in accessory design and womenswear after graduating from Limerick School of Art and Design, and spent 4 years administering and teaching at The Irish School of Millinery and Jewellery Design (a.k.a. Beads and Bling) in Dublin.
