Vintge Hat

[Vicki]

Ok.. I have this AWESOME hat, which I have just posted on eBay. Problem is .. I really don't know much about it and it really has me stumped. Maybe someone can help me identify this great hat! Thanks!

I'd love to see more shots of that!!!! It strikes me as a 30s piece, like the sculptured, peaked pieces Greta Garbo wore but with a wild twist!! It looks really fabulous. Do you have a link to your listing?

Yes! Here is a link to my auction:

Thanks for anything you can tell me about this hat. I think it is really wonderful, but since I do not collect vintage hats, I am selling it. It would just be nice to know something about it!

The more I think about it, the more I can see it with a lean 40s silhouette.....sort of a spin on the 40s turbans, very glamorous!!! I think the listing looks good and you've got it right.....love that hat! Ang

Ok, the first thought I had when I saw the picture you posted was * That is SO WEIRD*, but not in a negative way, just so out of the ordinary!

Looking at the auction I see the fringe is off to the side and the front view is just adorable~

Oh... I wish I lived somewhere where wearing a hat didn't cause people to stare - I don't mind but my children are mortified when I put on a hat or elbow gloves, and they plead with me to not wear vintage were their friends might see me

Sorry no info to add, just that I really like that hat!
