Original 1940s WWII Wide Brim Mushroom or Pancake Hat Amazing Trim
Original 1940s WWII Mushroom or Pancake Hat in Black Felt with the most Amazing Trim. This hat is from my own personal collection, which has been exhibited in Museums, Fashion Shows and has also appeared on the Antiques Roadshow. Sadly, lack of space is reluctantly forcing sale of part of my collection. This is one of those hats that if you saw it walking down the street would stop traffic! You can get pancake or mushroom hats with no problem but – you really don’t see many of as good a quality as this one. This is undeniably high fashion 1940s and can be worn in several ways – flat on the head (hence mushroom or pancake), with a tilt and forward or even towards the back of the head – the beauty of it it that however you wear it, it will look fabulous. The body is black felt and the trim is really fine, delicate straw work – please see the close up image. Condition is Used – this is in very good vintage condition – there are no make up stains on the inner band but there is a small graze on the top of the crown. Caveat: the trim is very fine and while I cannot spot any breakages, my eyes were going crossed looking for faults. There may be some but there most assuredly is nothing glaring, nothing in the least bit obvious and if I’ve missed a tiny break, then I apologise but I’m only human, lol! There is a label present, for Gimbel Brothers, but as to who the actual designer is, sadly there is no clue! Please remember that this item is almost 80 years old and as such is a vintage item going towards antique. It may have an odour – which all vintage clothing acquires over time. I do not believe in shoving fabric conditioner sheets in with items – this does run the risk of damage on delicate garments and frankly, I much prefer the honest fragrance of a timeless piece rather than some hideous chemically induced smell. This item has had a previous life and at least two previous owners! If you want something that is pristine, then this item is not for you. Please examine the images carefully before committing yourself and if in any doubt, please ask questions. I do, in the interests of the environment, reuse clean packaging wherever possible. Normally be Hermes and is sent signed for. I rarely use the post office unless for a very small parcel.
