Fabienne Delvigne's beginnings: the childhood of a designer
Fabienne Delvigne started creating flowers out of crepe paper when she was a child, which she made with passion.
But beyond the artistic aspect, this activity was also a first introduction to entrepreneurship.
She worked on the aesthetic of her flowers. She was learning to price her creations according to the time she spent on them, to negotiate, to understand the value of her work. She imagined original presentations to sell them better.
The royal hat, an annual ritual
For Belgium's National Day on 21 July, Fabienne Delvigne has created a hat specially designed for Her Majesty Queen Mathilde. This meeting has now become a well-established tradition.
This hat symbolises Belgian craftsmanship at its finest. It showcases the unique expertise of Maison Fabienne Delvigne. It also draws on a tradition well known to the public, where fashion and royalty intersect.
This is not a simple accessory, but a unique piece, carefully designed for an official event.
The hat for men, between utility and style
The men's hat was once designed to protect from the sun.
Today, it is also a means of expression.
It frames the face, completes an outfit with a matching ribbon, and asserts a presence. The men's hat has become a style accessory in its own right.
The hat in everyday life
The hat gradually established itself in everyday life, for both women and men alike.
Whether it's raining or shining, it gets through the seasons and adapts to all situations.
It is both a fashion accessory and an object of comfort.
The Caring Hat, a hat that heals differently
The Caring Hat was designed for people with cancer or alopecia.
This hat is not intended to conceal, but to enhance.
It draws attention to the beauty of the face rather than the effects of the illness.
It instills confidence, attracts positive attention, and helps everyone feel their best, elegant, and valued. It supports people through their ordeal.
Thanks to the ASBL Caring Hat Fund, these creations are accessible to those who cannot afford them.
A calling to serve beauty and joy
Each creation by Fabienne Delvigne is borne by three essential elements:
la passion, a taste for beauty, and the desire to make eyes sparkle of those who wear them.
His work is not limited to creating hats. It is about passing on’emotion, confidence, and joy through every creation.
