Hello and welcome to the home of Empressive Headwear.

I’m Astrid, the owner and maker of everything you’ll find here. I began making headdresses because I love dressing extravagantly and adorning my head at every given opportunity. As an avid supporter of independent designers I am surrounded by so much inspiration and colour in the clothes and jewellery I wear so after making a number of headdresses for myself I decided to start this little business to share the love. So if you’re looking for a special something to dress that gorgeous head of yours I hope you will like what you find here. I also offer bespoke commissions so if you have an idea or theme you’d like a piece for then please don’t hesitate to get in touch!
All my headdresses are designed to be comfortable so you can wear them for hours. No more pinching headbands or headaches here. Just bright an bold designs for you to wear to your hearts content!
