Flamboyant 1930's Hattie Carnegie Cocktail Hat

Wonderful 1930's Hattie Carnegie cocktail hat, a flamboyant combination of braided red straw and tulle with an exceptional ornament of cherries above a dense fringe of smaller red berries on long green stems. The brim is constructed from layers of dyed straw braided with wired ribbons of red tulle, the braid turned-up and doubled in back to provide a sturdy foundation for the embellishments. The crown is covered in tulle and has more of the straw/tulle combination, this time in narrow rows that allow a peek of the coiffure as well as a cooling effect for the wearer. There is a red silk faille band inside with "Hattie Carnegie" and "Beth Fritz, Chicago" labels and two tortoise celluloid combs and this highly collectible hat is in very good vintage condition with some discoloration to the faille band and a few missing berries, measures 7-inches front-to-back, 8-inches side-to-side, 20-inches inside circumference and 5 3/4-inches tall.
