Hats Off To You!

I've been a mad hatter this week.

Cocktail Hats: Small, frivolous, brimless hats worn towards the forehead.




My cocktail hats are made from a base of hand cut and formed lightweight buckram and slightly curved to contour to the head. Each features an attached clip and front loops for hair pins.

NOTE: Hats are modeled on a hair stylist manequin which is slightly smaller than a normal head.
