A TOP UK milliner is celebrating 150th anniversary of one of Glasgow's favourite sons with a hat collection.

William Chambers, who studied at the Scottish College of Textiles, is launching an exhibition of his work at the Lighthouse throughout August.

Pieces on display are from his autumn- winter 2018 collection, which was inspired by Mackintosh and the Glasgow Style.

Exclusive exhibition-only pieces will also be on display.

Chambers started his millinery business in 2008 and he now creates handmade hats and headpieces that are stocked in the country’s top department stores, as well as in his own hat shop and atelier in Glasgow city centre.

He has won Accessory Designer of the Year three times at the Scottish Fashion Awards, regularly shows at London Fashion Week and his designs have appeared in Vogue, Elle, Harpers Bazaar, Glamour, Tatler and Wallpaper.

Chambers said of the collection: "With 2018 being such a special year for Mackintosh, I felt it was finally time to pay homage to my fellow citizen and the rest of the Glasgow Four.

"Toshie and I share a love of geometry, line and florals, and these can be seen throughout the collection."

The exhibition of Charles Rennie Mackintosh inspired hats runs at The Lighthouse from today until October 7.
