Celebrating 20 Years of Excellence: Tina’s Anniversary at Lock & Co.

Today, 18th July 2025, we proudly raise our hats in honour of a truly extraordinary milestone – Tina’s 20th anniversary as our cherished Millinery Manager at Lock & Co. Hatters.

For two decades, Tina has been the beating heart of our atelier, guiding the creation of thousands of exquisitely crafted hats that have adorned heads across the globe. Her dedication, skill, and passion for millinery have not only upheld our centuries-old legacy but have also propelled it forward with creativity and innovation.

Tina’s influence reaches far beyond the workshop. She has been a mentor to many, a trusted guide, and an enduring source of inspiration. Her leadership and care have shaped the next generation of milliners, all while ensuring each piece that leaves our atelier meets the highest standards of craftsmanship.

Every hat shaped under her direction carries a part of her legacy – from the precision of a perfectly formed crown to the finesse of every final flourish. Her touch is evident in the details, and her commitment to excellence resonates in every satisfied customer who wears one of our pieces with pride.

As we celebrate this remarkable achievement, we invite you to join us in extending our deepest thanks and heartfelt congratulations to Tina. Her contribution to Lock & Co. is immeasurable, and her legacy will continue to inspire all who pass through our doors.

Here’s to Tina – our colleague, our mentor, and our dear friend. Thank you for twenty exceptional years of artistry, leadership, and unwavering excellence.
