I made this fashionable Civil War era hat with a tapered crown and narrower brim. This brim is stylishly shaped while being two inches deep. This hat would be good for a seaside adventure or other recreational excursions.
This crown is 20.25″around. The brim is 10.25″ across. This will suit an average size head.
A seaside painting was just posted by Victorians, Vile Victorians, with two hats of this style. I rather like the daisies along the ribbon on the girl’s hat.
I love it! Dress it up or keep it simple, what ever you need.
