the art of causing a stir
a gilded riot studio fascinator workshop
Feathers. Fascinators. Cocktails. Creative misbehavior.
Some people wear hats. Others make an entrance.
Join Gilded Riot Studio for an intimate, hands-on fascinator-making experience where a little imagination goes a long way—and subtlety is entirely optional.
Spend an afternoon sipping, snacking, socializing, and creating your very own one-of-a-kind statement headpiece. You'll start with a beautiful fascinator foundation and make it unmistakably yours using an eclectic assortment of feathers, veiling, flowers, vintage-inspired embellishments, and unexpected little treasures.
Whether your style leans toward understated elegance, vintage glamour, or full-blown fabulous nonsense, there's plenty of room to make something uniquely you.
And don't worry if you've never made a fascinator before. That's what I'm here for.

The Foundation: Included - Beautifully embellished headbands, petite fascinators, and smaller statement pieces. Plenty of personality, no upgrade necessary
Cause a Stir: +$15 - Dimensional designs, sculptural loops, miniature top hats, and specialty shapes for a little extra flair.
Steal the Scene: +$25 - Larger structured foundations, dramatic saucers, and architectural silhouettes that refuse to go unnoticed.
Full-Blown Riot: +$35 - Oversized, extravagant, and unapologetically theatrical. Statement-making foundations for those who have never believed in doing anything halfway.
