The Hat








modern coat: traditional turkish store // 40s shrug: flea market // 40s dress: Mankii Vintage Berlin // 40s shoes: from a friend // vintage purse: flea market // late 1930s felt hat: flea market // vintage lauscha grape brooch: flea market

This late 30s hat is kind of the holy gral of hats to me. 
It's almost easy to find half hats from the 50s 'all the time' but  every kind of hat that takes more room is so hard to find  -  and so difficult to store properly. For sure these are a few reasons, why we actually find so little fancier and bigger hats from past times that many. At a special point in their exictance they got squished and deformed, if they didn't end up as moth dinner. So I'm happy asa frog to have found this one ...
Also wearing true 40s brogues, I bought from a friend who also has to deal with large wide feet ... So once in a while we swap vintage food wear. This was the first time I took tehm for a spin. Don't they go perfectly with the hat?! ... Yesterday I won a purse on eBay which I hope turns this bordeaux double into a tripple set.

  1. Was für ein wundervoller Hut. Er erinnert ein wenig an den roten Hut von Agent Carter (falls du die Serie kennst). Und deine Frisur dazu ist ein Traum.
