The business is personal…
Couture milliner, Sally Faith Steinmann designs and creates each and every hat at MAGGIE MAE DESIGNS®.
Not sold in stores, Sally’s timeless fabric hats are perfect for those who are looking for something truly different!

In business since 1998, Sally’s Cape Cod-based company offers exquisitely handcrafted fabric hats in the finest silks and linens. Sally prefers the texture of these fine eco-friendly fabrics which sets her millinery apart as an homage to the natural world. To her beloved Cape Cod that continues to be one of her greatest sources of inspiration as a fabric artist.
Through her small custom millinery, Sally offers three unique categories of stunning hats and headpieces. You might say, a little something for everyone!
Featured Collections
For starters, MAGGIE MAE DESIGNS® offers Featured Collections, or standards – Bridal Hats, Mother-of-the-bride/groom Hats, Women’s Hats for the Kentucky Derby, and Royal Ascot Hats. The hats in these collections are all created to-order and sized to fit. However many of our customers enjoy customizing these hats. They prefer to think of the hats shown in the images as “starting points”. Basic forms upon which they can then customize with their own choices of color, material and design.

One-of-a-kind Hats and Headpieces Collection
MAGGIE MAE DESIGNS® also offers the One-of-a-kind Hats and Headpieces collection called, “Le Beau Jardin” (The Beautiful Garden). Inspired by her own garden, Sally handcrafted these exquisite one-of-a-kind collectibles that will never be duplicated.

Please enjoy your visit to this unique hat collection. If something strikes your fancy, please let Sally know so that she can check to see if the design will fit you well!
Custom (Bespoke) Hats
Custom, or “bespoke” hats are Sally’s third chapeau offering. And as MAGGIE MAE DESIGNS® customers will tell you, Sally’s Cape Cod studio is where the “hat magic” begins.
The process of designing a bespoke hat with Sally is a very personal and creative partnership. A partnership of equals, between fellow artists. With Sally, so many women discover the artist within. The one they didn’t even know was there……



And what could be more rewarding than a hat that you helped to create? Sally is there beside you, every step of the way. Encouraging you to imagine the hat of your dreams that she will then personally create with her own hands.
In the end, you will receive a chapeau that reflects your true sense of style. A hat that is uniquely yours and that you helped make happen!
