A high crown, brimless hat made from ruched dark red velveteen fabric draped over a buckram base. The layers of velvet are arranged around the crown of the hat to resemble a rose. The interior of the hat is lined with black acetate lining. There is a bright red Petersham ribbon stitched along the interior brim. A white fabric tag with a single red rhinestone adhered to it is stitched to the center back. The white fabric tag reads [Ian D] in black text.
