The Art of Adorning: A Step-by-Step Guide on How to Wear a Fascinator with Elegance

Fascinators, those delightful and dainty headpieces, are the epitome of sophistication and charm. As a milliner crafting exquisite pieces, you know that the key to making a statement with a fascinator lies not just in its design but in how it's worn. In this step-by-step guide, we'll unravel the secrets to putting on a fascinator flawlessly, ensuring you exude grace and style at any event. Pre-wedding derby-themed events are all the rage right now, and Maaneh Millinery is here to help you find the perfect fascinator to make your wedding guests shine.  

 

Start with the Right Side Out: Hold your fascinator inside out initially. Ensure that the "Maaneh Millinery" tag is readable, indicating the correct side of the fascinator. This attention to detail ensures you showcase the designer's intended vision.

 

Elastic Band Placement: Many fascinators come with a discreet elastic band for securing them to your head. The common mistake to avoid is placing the band under your chin. Instead, it should go behind your ears and around the nape of your neck. This subtle adjustment preserves the charm of the fascinator's design.

 

Secure the Elastic Band: Pull the elastic band over your head and allow it to rest at the nape of your neck, just behind your ears. Ensure the band sits comfortably without being too tight. Let your hair flow freely by pulling it out from the elastic band, similar to creating a ponytail.

 

Adjust the Fascinator to Your Forehead: Gently pull the fascinator up to your forehead in the desired angle. You can use pins to support the elastic band, ensuring a secure and comfortable fit.

 

Choose the Right Side: If you have no parting, the fascinator is traditionally worn on the right. Alternatively, use it to cover your parting. This creates a balanced and polished look, with one side showcasing your hair and the other adorned with the fascinator.

 

Placement Over the Eyebrow: Position the fascinator just above either your right or left eyebrow, depending on your hair parting. Leaning it towards either side adds a touch of chic flair to your overall appearance.

 

Experiment with Placement: While wearing the fascinator towards the front is acceptable, positioning it to the side exudes a more stylish and confident vibe. Embrace the versatility of your fascinator and play around with different angles until you find the one that resonates with your personal style.

 

Wearing a fascinator is an art that goes beyond simply placing it on your head. By following these step-by-step instructions, you can elevate your fascinator game and exude elegance at any event. Remember, the key is to embrace the design, play with the angles, and wear it with confidence. Whether you opt for a classic or bold look, your fascinator is sure to turn heads and make you the epitome of style at every occasion. So go ahead, adorn yourself with the beauty of a well-worn fascinator and let your unique style shine.
