Harriet's Vintage Hats...

In amongst the flowers and plants at Spriggs Florist for the next few months, you will find some rather beautiful and intriguing vintage hats. Harriet’s Vintage Hats has been visiting Spriggs for the last few years. The hats spend most of the year tucked away in protective boxes and acid free tissue, but for July to September they take up residence at chez Spriggs – to be ooh'd and aah'd at by visitors to the shop who duly try them on. Many say “my Nan had one just like that” or “oh my, don’t I look like my mother”.




So if you are looking for a hat for one of the many vintage events that is going on in Sussex this summer including Goodwood Vintage and Goodwood Revival then Harriet is here to help you.  With over a hundred original vintage hats to choose from, there is bound to be a hat to suit you and your outfit.

Harriet's Hats have been used on photographic shoots and are currently featured on Twisted Vintage where you can treat yourself to a beautiful Hollywood photographic portrait.

We look forward to seeing you at Spriggs to try on some of these fantastic hats.

Glorious Gloriosa

Last weekend was quite a busy one for us at Spriggs Florist.  It was Goodwood's Festival of Speed and we had the privilege of providing the flowers for one of our clients gala dinner.

The brief was for something really quite different and with real WOW. So Gloriosa it had to be. No vintage roses here - that's the next event in the middle of August.

We love Gloriosa Rothchildiana.

the only thing missing is a gorgeous perfume
