Description
An elegant women’s cocktail hat featuring an asymmetric dual-texture design, combining a pillbox front with a softly tailored turban back. The front is created from black wool felt adorned with small, scattered faceted black jet-beads, hand-sewn to catch light with subtle dimension. At the summit of the crown, the felt is gathered in radiating, soft pleats that meet at a central top knot, creating a sunburst effect that showcases mid-century tailoring techniques. The black crepe fabric wraps horizontally around the back of the skull in a layered band, gathering at the sides to juxtapose the rigid front structure, stiffened with a white grosgrain sweatband.
