I've alwaysbeen a maker.

I'm Tyler Miller, a British maker, designer and craftsman with more than three decades of experience creating things by hand.

Making has been part of my life for as long as I can remember. I've worked with fabric, shape, texture and traditional skills, but I've never been particularly interested in simply doing things the way they've always been done. I like experimenting, solving problems and finding my own way of making something work.

For almost 30 years, I worked within the British headwear industry, learning my craft from the factory floor upwards. I became a Master Hatter, designer and production specialist, and eventually built a name and a business around that experience. But the making never stayed in one lane. Sewing, textiles, pattern cutting, jackets, bags, photography and teaching have all been part of it.

It has taken me into some extraordinary places and given me opportunities I could never have imagined when I first started.

But careers — and people — don't always travel in straight lines.

In 2026, my life changed considerably.

I stepped away from Mister Miller Hats, the company and brand that had carried my name and had been such a large part of my life.

I'm incredibly proud of the work I created and the part I played in building its story. But I am no longer working with Mister Miller Hats, and my future work and projects are independent of the company.

For the first time in a very long time, I've found myself asking a surprisingly simple question: what do I want to make next?

I don't have every answer yet. And actually, I quite like that.

Tyler Miller Creative is my place to start again.

It's an umbrella for everything I'm interested in: making, design, craftsmanship, creativity, photography, ideas, old projects, new experiments and the occasional story about life when things don't quite go according to plan.

Some of it will look backwards. Much more of it will look forwards.

I'll share things I'm working on, things I've learned during more than 30 years of making, stories from behind the scenes and whatever develops along the way.

The hatting years gave me a trade and a title, Master Hatter, and a standard to work to. I'm proud of all of it. But making has always been bigger than hats, and so is this.

For now, I'm making again, thinking again and enjoying having the freedom to see where the next idea takes me.
