milliner's
Belonging to hatmaker
A milliner's is a shop where hats are made or sold, especially women's hats.
The term uses the possessive form common in British English for establishments: I picked up the hat from the milliner's on High Street.
The full form would be "milliner's shop," but the noun is routinely dropped.
