The Experience

The Purlicue Pinch Hat Bar is a guided, hands-on styling experience. Choose a hat, explore ribbons, feathers, pins, patches, and other details, and create a look that feels entirely your own. Our team helps with styling and finishing so you leave wearing your completed hat.

You can join us at select public events, host a private Hat Bar, or ask us to build a custom experience for a larger gathering. Pricing depends on the setting—see the options below.

 Find Us at a Market, Festival, or Pop-Up 

When the Purlicue Pinch Hat Bar is at a public event, you can stop by and create a hat with us. Choose your base hat, then pick the accessories you want. The hat and each accessory are priced separately, so you can keep it simple or add as many details as you like.

No private-event package or deposit is needed. Check our event schedule for appearances specifically marked Hat Bar; at some events, we bring finished hats only.
