Private Commission - The Cali

from $550.00

The hat that started as a vision and became a lifestyle.

The Cali is Jess’s own custom crown shape — developed in the atelier over years of making and refined into something that belongs to no other silhouette. A vintage flanged brim at four inches. A crown that sits with quiet authority. The kind of hat that looks like it was made specifically for you — because it was.

It can be left exactly as it is. Clean, considered, complete. Or it can become something more — adorned, personalized, and layered with the details that make it unmistakably yours. Botanical hand dyed in the natural hue of your choosing. Custom embellishments dreamed up in conversation. A gold wire hat pin bearing your name or a word that means something. The Cali holds all of it without losing itself.

This is California millinery. Rooted in the land, shaped by hand, finished to your soul.

Felt options

European rabbit — lighter weight, beautifully soft

Nutria — mid weight, exceptional hand and durability

Premium American beaver — the finest felt Jess works with, dense and luminous

Make it yours

Botanical hand dyeing — additional $150

Your choice of natural plant dyed hues. Every hat emerges slightly differently. No two are the same.

Custom embellishments — additional $100 to $200

Whatever you are imagining — bring it to the notes section at checkout. Jess will be in touch to confirm the details and invoice any add-ons separately before work begins.
