Sherri Hrycay
Sherri studied with Rose Cory in London and was featured in a front page article in her local newspaper. Afterwards she was asked to make a hat for a lady attending the Queen’s garden party in London. “I made a custom dyed straw hat worn at the Queens garden party at Buckingham Palace in London.”

It is my hope and goal to influence people’s fashion esthetic so they wear hats for formal occasions all the time. She studied Haute Couture fashion design with Mite de Fontinay in Calgary, Alberta and started sewing clothes for her dolls at age five.

“My greatest inspiration was the hat exposition at the Victoria and Albert museum by Stephen Jones in London. Philip Treacy’s studio in London was a big inspiration.

The TV Mini Series “Coco Chanel” staring Shirley MacLaine is an inspiration because of Chanel’s early years as a milliner, her tenacity during that time and her overall esthetic.”

Hrycay is looking for retail representation.
