This is truly an extraordinary tilt hat from the 190s'. It is made of amazing fuchsia suede. The crown has a conical shape, and the brim covers the front one side, creating an alluring effect by covering one eye. There is a bow at the front, from which a matching ostrich feather emerges and drapes towards the back.
The wartime 40’s saw a huge variety of hats that were suitable for any face shape, hairstyle or personal preference. Throughout the war & on both sides of the Atlantic, elaborate creations brightened dreary utility fashions, brought about by rationing. The only items not rationed were hat materials. Explosions of feathers, veiling & artificial flowers were popular.
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.
