Luckily, these captivating toppers from Vancouver-based milliner Claudia Shulz offer the perfect mix of snugness and style, while presenting a striking minimalist twist on classic 1920s European silhouettes.

Her most recent collection features demure cloche-like caps with a sporty, Kentucky Derby-esque appeal. Schulz sources wool felt from her native Germany and hand-shapes each piece into a delightful little work of art for your head.
