Maison Michel

The story of Maison Michel begins in 1936 when Auguste Michel opened his millinery at 65 rue Sainte-Anne, Paris. By the 1970s maison michel had become the hat maker of choice for Parisian haute couture, which was booming at the time. In 2015 Priscilla Royer was appointed to create the collections and the House image at michel maison; the creative director’s hat designs are innovative, capturing the zeitgeist and responding to the cult of individuality that defines our era. Priscilla Royer has made headwear accessible once more by developing pieces that suit both women and men, allowing each individual to express their personality. A maison michel hat is the ultimate finishing touch to any silhouette — from a structured maison michel fedora or a timeless maison michel hat to a cosy maison michel beanie, bucket or bridal piece. The atelier’s output (often referenced simply as michel maison hat in listings) spans classic shapes—fedoras, berets and bucket hats—alongside seasonal experiments, headbands and hair accessories, all crafted with millinery savoir-faire.
