The experience was inspiring and left me brimming with ideas for future projects. Virna provided a lot of fascinating information that enriched the learning process. She was very helpful all the time. Overall, it was an outstanding course that I highly recommend to anyone interested in fashion, textile art and crafting. "

"I recently had the pleasure of attending a millinery workshop led by the incredibly talented Virna Pasquinelli, and it was truly a transformative experience. From start to finish, the workshop was nothing short of exceptional. First and foremost, Virna's expertise in the art of millinery is unparalleled. Her deep knowledge of materials, techniques, and design principles shines through in every aspect of the workshop. She guided us through each step with clarity and precision, ensuring that even beginners like myself could grasp the intricacies of hat making. What truly sets this workshop apart is Virna's passion for her craft. Her enthusiasm is infectious, and it's clear that she genuinely loves sharing her knowledge with others. The workshop itself was well-organized and thoughtfully structured. We had ample time to practice each technique, and Virna provided all the necessary materials and tools. The atmosphere was relaxed and supportive, making it easy to ask questions and experiment with different styles and designs. By the end of the workshop, I felt empowered and inspired to continue exploring the world of millinery on my own. I left with a newfound appreciation for the artistry and craftsmanship that goes into creating a beautiful hat, as well as the confidence to pursue my own creative projects. Thank you, Virna, for an unforgettable experience!"

"I did a 1 day workshop with Virnia which was great fun. It was very informative and interesting. Choosing designs and fabrics especially trimmings. Virnia was helpful and very knowledgable but also great fun. And best of all , I came away with a hat that was good enough to wear to my daughters wedding and even better when friends commented I Love Your Hat and I could say Yes I Made It. "

Virna Pasquinelli Millinery responded:

"Thank you Jackie, It was so great having you in the studio! So much fun! And your piece is spectacular! Well done! "

"I brought this course as a honeymoon present for my wife and myself, and it was great. We had a problem with our car which meant we were late starting and had an interrupted first day - Virna was very kind, being flexible and supportive, doing her best not to add any additional stress to a difficult day, which we really appreciated. Once we were able to settle down and really get going properly on the second day we had a lovely time - Virna is clearly very skilled, and a great teacher as well. Beyond that, it was a real pleasure to chat to her through the day. Would thoroughly recommend this course and teacher."

Virna Pasquinelli Millinery responded:

"Dear Allan and Jeanette, Thanks for the kind words and especially for having me part of such special time for you both. I really enjoyed my time with you and the hats that you made are exceptionally fabulous! Well done! I hope to see you again. Best wishes for your future together as husband and wife. Take care Virna"

"My sister gifted me a voucher for one of Virna’s classes just before the lockdown. I contacted her in advance saying that I wanted to make a felt cocktail hat and she send me a moodboard and designed a whole class just for myself which made me feel very special. I spent a wonderful day, I learned how to sew for the first time and came home with the most adorable headpiece. I am planning to attend another of Virna’s classes and I cannot recommend her enough. She’s so passionate and knowledgeable about millinery, very patient and just a pleasure to be with. Thank you Virna!"
