When creativity, passion, and a shared love for British craftsmanship come together, something truly magical happens. That’s exactly what has unfolded with the exciting new collaboration between Ferne England and Clare Haggas Fine Art. This partnership is all about blending art, fashion, and tradition in the most stylish way possible—think handmade millinery meets luxury silk accessories!
So, how did this all begin? Well, like many great stories these days, it started on Instagram. Olivia, the talented artisan behind Ferne England, and Clare Haggas, the acclaimed wildlife artist turned designer, connected through mutual friends on the platform. Soon realising they had many things in common - not just in their creative visions, but also in their commitment to celebrating British craftsmanship.
Olivia has been crafting her exquisite millinery and gifts under the Ferne England brand since 2014. Her work is all about elegance, quality, and that signature British charm.
Their first joint project? Silk hair bows!
Their debut came at The Game Fair 2024, selling out in under two hours. These hair bows are not just accessories; they’re wearable art. Each bow is crafted with the kind of attention to detail and creativity that both Clare and Olivia are known for.
But don’t worry if you missed out on The Game Fair debut - Olivia is already hard at work on the next drop of limited-edition bows. They’ll be part of the upcoming Autumn/Winter collection, as well as at Clare's stand at Cheltenham Races November meet.
Trust us, these bows are going to be the talk of the town.
