A cream faux fur hat with an upturned brim. The hat is made of two pieces – the crown and the brim sewn together along the crown base. Both pieces are made from buckram that have been blocked to shape and covered in a panel of cream-colored faux fur fabric. A metal wire has been sewn into the edge of the brim for added structure. A white synthetic Petersham ribbon is sewn along the inner brim and the inside of the hat is lined with one panel of white synthetic plain weave fabric. There is no label.
