This is a fabulous find, preserved from the 1930s'. It is a black grosgrain + straw tilt fedora, which is supposed to be worn tilted forward and off to one side. The crown is made of a wide band of grosgrain in a tubular shape, and is surrounded by a short straw brim. There is a thin bow at the front, and a strip of black veiling is around the crown, tied at the back, and forms 2 streamers.To hold the hat in a tilted position, there are 2 grosgrain straps held together with an ele=astic ring.Tilt hats were popular in the 1930s and 1940s. They were worn at an angle and held to the back of the head by a strap, rigid ring, elastic band beneath the hair, or a combination of these. There is no label, indicating it was a custom-made creation.This is an authentic piece of fashion history! This hat is in wonderful vintage condition & has been lovingly preserved among over 1300 vintage hats we have collected for 40+ years. Feathers, straw, flowers & veils are fragile, given their age. Mannequin not for sale.
