Serena Lindeman came to millinery in 1993 in London following an earlier life as an art teacher. After training at London College of Fashion she went to work for Edwina Ibbotson, a well-respected London milliner. After returning to Melbourne in 1998 she established her own business in the Nicholas Building in Swanston Street in the city of Melbourne. Her millinery is defined by clean lines, contemporary aesthetic and always with an eye to the woman she is dressing.
