Based in Cape Town, South Africa, Crystal Birch has become a premier milliner among the fashion conscious. Having studied fashion at Elizabeth Galloway Academy of Fashion, Crystal Birch honed her millinery skills under the guidance of Noel Stewart and Piers Atkinson, arguably two of Europe’s finest hat-makers. Working out of an old manufacturing company, Crystal Birch has continued to rise as she creates irreverent and modern designs of classic styles.
