Exciting news! A small selection of hats will be heading to 。This is an outstanding asymmetrical cocktail hat from the fabulous 50s\' fashions! The solid structure is covered in a reddish brown velour at the front and edges, and the rest of the hat is decorated with artistic beige fabric \"flowers\' with silver beads at the center. There is a long pheasant feather crossing over the front, and a gorgeous yellow curly feather, as photographed. This is such an elegant and unusual look! There is no size, since this hat is made so it can adjust to any head size, and sits on top of the head. Daytime hats were de rigueur for women in the 1930s, except for more formal late afternoon events (art openings, cocktail parties, tea dances etc.) when a daytime hat just did not work with a cocktail dress. When Hollywood costume designers Elsa Schiaparelli and Mr. John paired a new, smaller hat with cocktail dresses in several movies, women of fashion around the world eagerly followed suit. Cocktail hats reached the height of their popularity during the 1950s. There is no designer label, indicating it was a custom-made creation. This is an authentic piece of fashion history! This hat is in wonderful vintage condition & has been lovingly preserved among over 1300 vintage hats we have collected for 40+ years. Feathers, straw, flowers & veils are fragile, given their age. Mannequin not for sale.
