According to Christian Dior, the hat is the centre piece of every fashion statement.

However, there are few hat designers in the Netherlands who have their own salons and the professional know how of Berry Rutjes. Over the years, she has proven herself to be a veritable expert: passionate, creative, inventive, with an eye for detail and a feel for style and tradition.

From Prinsjesdag to trendy statement

In her milliner's shop and hat salon, Berry Rutjes creates custom-made hats for her clients. Her clientèle consists of business women, women from 'palace circles', trendy women and women who want to make a statement on special occasions. Rutjes has designed extravagant hats for members of parliament to wear on 'Prinsjesdag', elegant hats for members of the royal family and avant-garde hats for various fashion designers. 

Prêt-à-porter collection and workshops

Rutjes has a prêt-à-porter collection that is renewed every year, presented online and off, and she teaches courses and workshops in her own, dynamic way. For further information and applications, see Mad Hatter's Tea Party. If you want to get a hold of a hat by Berry Rutjes Hat Design, you don't have to come to the Netherlands. Berry Rutjes supplies several exclusive national and international stores, for instance in London and Tokyo.
