Lilly Dache (Dachette) hat - how would you describe the style?

What I don't know about hats is a lot - I have biographical info on Lilly Dache, but is there a name for this style? How would you describe it?

Also - date?

Thanks!

Nice snaps. Great hat. Without seeing the label, I'd venture to say 60's. It's a style done after the Roaring 20's Flapper. Looks mint. I think the label is very desirable. Good luck~

 

Lilly Dache pre 1960 hats sell very well, but these early 60s styles don't. You could, as Andrea suggests, call it a cloche style.

 

Thanks Andrea and Jonathan -

Cloche-style it is

Here's a snap of the label - I assume it confirms that the hat is post-1960?

Yes it is. Dachettes is the low end of her line. You want the black and white labels - they are the better ones.
