'Le Chapeau': Textiles Exhibition

27 SEPTEMBER - 19 DECEMBER 2025

Redlands Coast Museum

Visit the Redlands Coast Museum for "Le Chapeau", a textiles exhibition.

This display features an array of beautiful hats, as well as millinery tools and equipment.

The hats range from a fragile 1880s black silk bonnet to a smart black straw bucket hat from the 2000s. There are also a number of stunning items donated by Brisbane milliner Dell Johnstone and her mother, Mrs Edna Hicks (also a qualified tailoress).

If you not only have a passion for fashion, but an interest in its history, make sure you don't miss out on this fascinating exhibition!
