Mari Mari Hattelier Sessions at Tala Beach

An afternoon in the atelier, where the hat is made around you. The MARI MARI Hattelier Sessions invite each guest to compose a one-of-a-kind piece, beginning with a handcrafted silhouette in handwoven Panama straw or 100% western-weight felt, offered in a considered palette of color. 

From there, the design is yours. Select from our materials: gold charms in the shape of seashells, fish, scarabs and evil eyes, our signature horseshoe, natural stones, and trimmings collected from around the world. Finish with hand stitching, or with initials and motifs etched by fire into the hat itself.

Every piece is completed by hand, with the MARI MARI team at your side from the first selection to the final detail. The hat is the canvas. The point of view is entirely your
own.
 

THE PIECES
Handcrafted Panama straw and western-weight felt hats, made from the finest materials in millinery and rooted in the hat-making traditions of Ecuador and Mexico. Each is adorned on site with charms, natural stones and trimmings sourced from around the world. No two are alike.
