Nina Falana Hats

For years I have watched my husband and his team produce the most exquisite men's hats at the legendary Optimo Hats in Chicago.

I have always wanted to take the scientific principles of hat making and apply them towards a line of womens hats. Hats that would stand the test of time because of expert workmanship and the classic shape and finishing of the hat.

On a trip to France a few years ago, we stumbled upon a treasure of vintage hat blocks for women from the 1920s through to the 1950s. Using the unmatched hat making skills of the Optimo Hat Company, I now produce the timeless, classic hats that I had dreamt about.
