1940s Stylist Hat Salon High Set Black Felt Tilt Hat designer-hanae-mori Waist: open and defined byThis hat is darling with its shaped and formed high peaked crown and small brim. It is meant to sit high on the head and worm at a slight tilt as was the fashion of the day.

It is made from a black felt and is in beautiful condition for its age. Its simplicity makes it feel surprisingly modern even now. Excellent condition
