Right from the start, Sally works with every customer individually. She starts with very specific questions – What is the occasion for this hat? Do you have any fabric preferences? Is there a particular color scheme or trim design that you have in mind? Are you comfortable wearing hats?

When you contact Sally, you may already know the MAGGIE MAE DESIGNS® hat that you would like. Or, you may like one of Sally’s chapeaux but would prefer it in a different color, with slightly smaller brim dimensions, or trimmed with a different bow or floral design. Just about anything is possible here at MAGGIE MAE DESIGNS®, so dream BIG! and let Sally know what you are envisioning…

Above all else remember this – Sally will work to help you imagine and create a hat that really says – you. A hat that reflects your own true sense of style. A hat that you will love wearing. And a hat that you will cherish forever.
