About Us

Meet our CEO & Designer - Ilona S.

Creativity’s kinda always been my thing.
It runs deep in my family - my parents were competitive ballroom dancers, and my dad, brother, and aunt are all painters. So yeah, expressing yourself? Definitely in my blood.

But for a long time, I thought creativity had to look a certain way - fit in a neat little box. That all changed when I moved to Harlem in 2018. The bold fashion, the unapologetic energy, it lit something in me. That’s when I started playing with hat design. Not just any hats, fedoras that speak. Fedoras with presence. Fedoras with vibe.

Then the world shut down. While most people were closing businesses, I took a leap and started mine. I packed up my tiny Harlem apartment and moved to Atlanta...a city that breathes creativity and knows how to wear it loud.

Word got out quick. Fedora Designs became known for bold custom pieces that make a statement before you even say a word. Now, my hats are on heads all across the country, from fashion lovers to everyday vibe-setters.

So if you’re ready to stand out, turn heads, and wear your energy - Fedora Designs has your crown.
