Description

Ideal for your early 1895-ish dress, this hat is really a confection!

 

Light, but makes a scene.

Hand dyed and hand pleated silk organza, finished with satin and velvet ribbons. The lining is silk, and the brim is see through, like in some fashion plates from the era! Also the peonies at the back help supporting it. Flowers underneath the brim were really popular, and you see them so little in recreations these days!

The top of the hat is covered in hydrangea flowers, in different shades of light purple.

One of a kind piece!
