Dating Christian Dior Hats

[jldarcy518]

Looking for any information regarding these two Christian Dior hats. First one is natural colour, almost like raffia. Bow on the side. Label reads, " Christian Dior Licence Chapeaux." Second hat is black velvet allover loops. Label reads, " Christian Dior chapeaux"

Thanks, in advance
Jennifer

Your photos do not seem to show up for me. They are likely late 1950s to late 1960s but of course the picture will help.

Thanks for responding. I'll re-read the instructions to post a photo and try again.

HI,

OK now the photos are showing up. I would place these in the early to mid 1960s. I find the Dior Chapeaux label on your black hat interesting as it is different that the Dior Chapeaux labels used on the made in USA hats, and not as common. Your hat was made in England if I read it correctly.

That's correct - the black one states, Made in England. Actually, so does the Birds Nest one...
