Sinamay

What is Sinamay? Sinamay is a viral material for headwear. It is made from sisal hemp fibres from the Philippines. Being a very fine material, it is easy and versatile to work with. Additionally, its fine structure gives the crafted headwear an exquisite appearance, which is why Sinamay is highly sought after for the most exquisite fascinators and hats in special designs. Another positive attribute is its high shape retention; Sinamay straw can be stiffened more effectively than other straw types such as Raffia or Toyo.
