  • Castlemaine Costume Gallery 24 Hargraves Street Castlemaine, VIC, 3450 Australia (map)

Crowning Glory Hats, Halo's and Headpieces.
Including creations from the Master Milliners of Melbourne; William Beale, Ann Austin and Stella Long.

As a teenager, Brunswick born William Beale helped his mother with her home dressmaking business. At 18, in the early 1950's Beale opened his first salon up the fashionable Paris end of Collins Street. He was to remain Melbourne's premiere milliner for the next 40 years.

To stay, we suggest one of our Mt Alexander Shire Properties.
