Lillie and Cohoe

Handmade Luxury Hats

While we are proud of all the brands we carry at the store, none have shown such consistent popularity with its devout followers as British Columbia based Lillie and Cohoe. With an acute awareness as to what suits women, Liz Cohoes designs appeal to women of all ages, shapes, colours and styles. Their feminine curves, stunning fabrics and attention to detail mean that from your first purchase of a Lillie and Cohoe hat – you’re hooked!

From the 1930′s warehouse in Nelson, BC, these hats are now shipped all over the world and have succeeded in quickly forming a strong international fan base. In her own words, Liz describes how discovering a hat that suits you can impact your image of yourself  - “I was exhibiting in Calgary on year,” recounts Cohoe, “when two women approached my display. They both wanted to try on hats, but one was relunctant – she felt that she was too plain, that hats looked bad on her. I suggested a couple of styles and after trying on the second hat, the woman stood there silently. Then she turned to her friend, and whispered ‘I’m beautiful’. They both had tears in their eyes.”

This story goes some way to explain the love Lillie and Cohoe wearers have for their hats!
