This is a beautiful and timeless chocolate brown straw beret from the 1940s'. The body of the hat is made of shiny interwoven wide strands of straw. It is made to be worn asymmetrically. There is a small grosgrain bow on one side, and the gorgeous blue ostrich feathers adorn the other side. STUNNING!The wartime 40’s saw a huge variety of hats that were suitable for any face shape, hairstyle or personal preference. Throughout the war & on both sides of the Atlantic, elaborate creations brightened dreary utility fashions, brought about by rationing. The only items not rationed were hat materials. Explosions of feathers, veiling & artificial flowers were popular. Label: EDNA CHARLESWORTH - Long Beach, CAThis is an authentic piece of fashion history! This hat is in wonderful vintage condition & has been lovingly preserved among over 1300 vintage hats we have collected for 40+ years. Feathers, straw, flowers & veils are fragile, given their age. Mannequin not for sale.
