Feather Vintage Brown Pheasant cloche hat women Fashion 。This is a gorgeous cocktail hat from the 1950s\'! The asymmetrical cap is covered in feathers: The feathers at the front are rust colored, and at the top back there are multicolored feathers. The inside is lined with beige lace fabric. The hat is somewhat flexible, allowing it to fit different head sizes. History of the cocktail hat: Daytime hats were de rigueur for women in the 1930s, except for more formal late afternoon events (art openings, cocktail parties, tea dances etc.) when a daytime hat just did not work with a cocktail dress. When Hollywood costume designers Elsa Schiaparelli and Mr. John paired a new, smaller hat with cocktail dresses in several movies, women of fashion around the world eagerly followed suit. Cocktail hats reached the height of their popularity during the 1950s. There is no designer label, indicating it was a custom-made creation.

This hat is in wonderful vintage condition & has been lovingly preserved among over 1300 vintage hats we have collected for 40+ years.
