Peacock Feather Black Steampunk Top Hat With Goggles 。What a beautiful and elegant cocktail hat from the fashionable 1950s\'! The structure is like a wide headband, as it opens and closes slightly to accommodate multiple head sizes en hair styles. It is covered in black curly feathers and features a taller peacock feather. The inside is covered in black lace. Stunning! Daytime hats were de rigueur for women in the 1930s- 1950s’, 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. Please keep in mind that you are buying a vintage hat, not new nor perfect! 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, furs, flowers & veils are fragile, given their age. Mannequin not for sale.
