These headdresses and wire-frame hats are made using millinery wire for the main structure, and millinery tie-wire wrapped around the joins.
You can buy this type of wire (which is made for exactly this purpose from millinery suppliers such as http://www.hatsupply.com/ or http://www.judithm.com/.
Both of those websites also have sections that list classes and millinery teachers/schools, so perhaps in perusing those you can find a wire-frame class in your area!
