Hello.

Amelia Ellison owner and founder of Navella first started out with a heavy interest in Fashion Photography studying the subject for seven years. She later graduated with a BA Honours degree at the London College of Fashion. She features in Fashion editorials contributing as a Fashion Assistant in the likes of Schon Magazine and has worked alongside Photographer Joseph Ford as his assistant.

Over the years she has explored a variety of creative roles within the Fashion Industry finally finding her feet and comfort with Fashion Designing and hand making embellished cowboy hats, which have been featured in multiple Fashion Magazines such as Rolling Stones Magazine.

She has also collaborated with Fashion Designers for London Fashion Week and for many Musicians. Her hats have also been used for London Selfridges's fashion department store for their christmas displays.

Navella started in 2019 when Amelia decided to cover her own cowboy hat with different coloured bindis and jewels for a music festival. Throughout the day onlookers asked the question "Where did you get your hat from? I want one"! It was then that she realised embellishing hats was going to be her very own business adventure.

Amelia lives in Brighton UK where she is constantly inspired by the city's sparkling drag queens and performers. Since her teenage years Amelia has been taking fashion notes from icons such as Gwen Stefani, Dita Von Teese, FKA Twigs, Grimes, Grace Jones, Diana Ross, Cher and many more.

"One thing that will never go out of Fashion are diamantes"

The attention to detail on each hat is so intricate with every diamante being attached individually on the hat's base. Each hat also comes with its very own extra sparkly silver diamante stampede straps for an extra bit of glam to hug you around your neck. There is so much sparkle and character to each cowboy hat it's guaranteed one won't be enough for you! Luckily the hats come in all sorts of colours and designs to suit all kind of events and outfit choices.
