Fascinators FAQs

What is a fascinator?

A fascinator is a formal headpiece and a style of millinery. They're typically highly decorative in design, and purely ornamental compared to a hat. Modern fascinators derive their design from small 1960s cocktail hats, and are common accessories worn at formal occasions like weddings or racing carnivals such as the Kentucky Derby or Melbourne Cup.

How to wear a fascinator?

The decorative elements of fascinators are attached to either a headband or a hair clip. The detailed parts of fascinators are designed to face the front so that they are in full view. According to old customs, the fascinator should sit on the right-hand side of your head - this is because a gentleman would traditionally accompany a lady on his left side, so a fascinator worn on the right would ensure full visibility of the lady's face so the couple could easily maintain polite conversation.
