About Philip Somerville

  • Philip Douglas Frank Somerville (12 February 1930 – 14 September 2014) was an English milliner – partly trained in Auckland – who had a salon in London.
  • He is widely known for hats worn by the Queen – from whom he held a Royal Warrant – and Diana, Princess of Wales.
  • He also created headgear worn by two James Bond villainesses. His obituary in The Sunday Times said of his influence on Princess Diana's fashion sense: "he helped to mould her style – and with it the country's taste in hats".
