1940s French ladies tilt hat in Black straw with cream/black detailing. A very beautiful ladies tilt hat from 1940s France. With all the French millinery expertise you would expect. It is constructed in woven black lacquered straw. It is trimmed with wired ribbons in hues of black and cream/ivory. Pretty veiling sits around the crown and falls in to a trailing bow at the back. This is a super stylish tilt with echo’s of Hollywood glamour. The crown dips and the brim falls to the front and turns upwards at the back. It is worn at a sharp angle to give that alluring glamour that only a tilt hat can. It is in excellent vintage condition, pristine clean and totally wearable. Of an average ladies head size, approx. There is an elastic to secure (to be lost in your hair at the back of your head). I will be listing many of my beautiful hats over the coming weeks so do please keep watching.
