only in my dreams...

"Imogen's Imagination is the result of desire...albeit my desire to have a new hat to wear to every burlesque night I attended and not having the funds to do so! I started the label in 2005 and within weeks I was stocking the alternative shop Ultravixen (coincidentally the founder of Peek-a-boo, the first burlesque night in Sheffield).

This pleasurable partnership lasted for over a year, during which my designs regularly being seen around the city and receiving a great response. I was also privileged to be featured in Total Tattoo Magazine as part of an Ultravixen fashion spread with the delightful Kitten von Mew as the resident pin-up. In September 2008 I re-launched Imogen's Imagination with vigour and now present to you the much expanded business you now see.




Whilst the original range originated with burlesque roots, it now aims to offer bespoke headwear to meet your needs whatever the occasion. Whether you need something for the weekend, a showstopping accessory for your performance, something to top off your race day outfit or to wow the wedding guests, Imogen's Imagination will always provide a timely, personal, professional and affordable service. I am currently studying millinery as an evening student at Leeds College of Art and Design...hopefully you'll see some of the fruits of my research in the library coming through in my designs!"

Entry is free and we'd love to see you there! Check out our recent posts to view some of the brilliant stallholders that will be there.......and the picture? It is random, that's my Mum & Dad a few (cough!) years ago, they look pretty and stylish and they are better looking than me so with such a friendly grin on their faces I thought it would be fun to invite you with that picture! Who could resist?!
