Grey bonnet with bow and silver net

Unidentified · 1980s-1990s

A grey bonnet with a bow and silver net. The base of the bonnet is made of a band grey cotton twill that is gathered around the crown with an opening at the top of the crown. Four rosettes made of brown synthetic satin are sewn along the outside of the grey cotton twill on the front and sides of the hat. Synthetic net with silver metallic thread is tacked to the outside of the hat and gathered at the top of the crown. The net hangs over the front of the hat past the grey twill, creating a veil. Monofilament thread is used to sew the net to the exterior of the hat. A large bow made of grey cotton twill is tacked to the center back of the hat. The underside of the bow tails is faced with light brown synthetic satin. A chin strap made of a black elastic band is sewn on the sides of the hat at the interior.
