I was just researching when i happened to come over some amazing milliners, which admittedly I may have know one or two of them beforehand, but the pieces I found inspirational are perfect for this project, and nearly all of them I had not seen before just because they are not very well know and therefore do not update their websites very often because of lack of time / business.
My top three for this project;
FRANC FERNANDEZ
PHILIP TREACY WITH ISABELLA BLOW
HAYLEY MARSDEN
