Silver crownless hat with floral pattern
Unidentified · ca. 1980
A high, cylindrical shaped, crownless hat made from a synthetic silver damask with an allover rose pattern woven into the fabric. The front right part of the hat is one inch higher than the left. The right side of the hat overlaps the left at the center front. The bottom edge has been turned under to create a three-quarter rolled hem using the same material. The lining fabric is a white brocade with leaf motifs and a vertical cording effect. There is no label.
