Enjoy a walk amongst the hat creations crafted over the course of the last two years. The selection comprises of two hat series that were made for London’s Hat Week 2019 and for the second repurchase by London’s oldest department store, Fenwick. The latest collection of A/W 2020 hats remains unfinished in terms of creating the projected number of hats, as all collaborations with the United Kingdom were first paralyzed by Brexit and then completely interrupted by the epidemic.

She also collaborates with the Slovene National Theatre Maribor. She designs jewellery, hats and lamps under the brand Polona Poklukar (www.polonapoklukar.com).
