Nicky Zip is the founder and managing director of Suburban Turban: fashionable and stylish headwear for women suffering from hair loss. With over 20 years experience in creative design and millinery, Nicky has spent the last 10 years designing and making hats for the English season, including Ascot races, Henley-on-Thames Royal Regatta and racing at Goodwood. Nicky’s hats have also been seen at Buckingham Palace, the Queen’s Golden Jubilee celebrations and Sandhurst. Nicky trained in millinery in Kensington and Chelsea and at the London College of Fashion and in 2005 Nicky Zip won 'Best Hat' at Lingfield Ladies’ Day, made even more prestigious by Ascot being closed that year, and her hats have also appeared in 'Hello!' magazine. The idea for Suburban Turban was formed at a charity fashion show for GRACE, (Gynae-oncology Research and Clinical Excellence), last year, where several ladies were discussing the real need for fashionable product for women experiencing hair loss. After this event, Nicky went on to do significant research into hair loss and has spent six months sourcing the right products from Europe and the UK. She is an expert in her field of traditional millinery and is rapidly becoming one in her adopted field of headwear for hair loss.
