I found out at the very last minute that I had tickets to this year's Kentucky Derby so, naturally,…read morethe scramble began to find a great hat. I had no clue where to get a nice hat and I had no time so I checked out the major department stores' selection online first. Boring, boring, boring. So the search began for a real hat designer. If I was going to the Derby, I was going to do it right! I found Chapeau Creations on Yelp (of course) and took a look at their website. They definitely have a lot of different Derby hats so I called them up and spoke with Elaine. It seems like a lot of hat designers make their hats custom but, thankfully, Elaine told me that, while she does custom hats, she also had some ready to wear hats to choose from. Phew! I made an appointment to come in the day before my flight. In order to get a better idea of what I was looking for, she gave me a password for the website so I could browse the collection and pick out some of my favorites to try on at the appointment. When I got to my appointment, she had a wide variety of hats in all different colors for me to try. She had all of the styles I had picked out and a variety of others available just in case. It was definitely difficult narrowing it down to just one. In the end I liked one style but in a different color. Elaine was able to modify the hat in the color I liked so that I could have exactly what I wanted. She said she was also able to adjust it to swoop a certain way if I would have wanted. I chose to keep it just as it was. The day at the Derby was amazing and I got tons of compliments on my beautiful hat. Now, if I ever go again, I know who to call first!

Order #116641 I…read moreplaced my order on Friday, July 24, and received an email confirming the purchase. By July 29, after sending two emails requesting an update on my order status, I still had not received any response from the vendor. I eventually had to call the company myself to find out what was happening, only to be told that my order could not be fulfilled because the color I selected was no longer available--even though it was listed as in stock at the time I placed the order. I am extremely disappointed with the lack of communication and customer service. Customers should not have to repeatedly follow up just to learn that their order cannot be fulfilled. If there is an inventory issue, the company should proactively notify customers instead of leaving them waiting without any updates. Based on this experience, I cannot recommend this company. The inaccurate inventory information, poor communication, and lack of customer support made for a very frustrating buying experience. I'm sharing my experience so other potential customers can make an informed decision before purchasing from this company.
