Though the weather seems to disagree, Spring Racing season is definitely hotting up. If you're keen to get your frock on and bets in, odds are you're after a stand-out hat to top off your look. This week at Melbourne Central two of the city's brightest new stars of bespoke millinery - Michelle Czech and Alexis Belcher - are creating individual millinery pieces for customers. The workshops will give shoppers a chance to be involved in the process and have a uniquely beautiful fascinator or hat to wear throughout the Racing Carnival. Details after the jump.

There aren't too many alpha-females out there and, though she might deny it, Tania Braukamper certainly exudes their qualities. A keen eye, a focused approach, and a wardrobe spanning three rooms have made her one of the savviest of dressers. But it's not all couture for Tania, earning her fashionista credentials she'll frequently be seen on the town in a one-off, vintage dress and a pair of Gucci heels.
She says: Vintage will never go out of style
We say: Does that include vintage 80s?
