Here's a vibrant vintage hat with bright, bold color and lots of great character.
The hat has a nice rigid body made of divine ruby-red velour.
A wide band of perfectly matched satin adorns the lower edge of the cap, creating a perfect complement of textures.
The satin tapers toward the back where you will find two original hatpins with matching velour tops.
A narrow red grosgrain ribbon lines the inner-band; this is where you will find the original fabric retailer and designer's tags.
The first tag reads "Lord & Taylor" and is followed by the designer's tag which reads "Mr. D".
A manufacturer's mark is imprinted on the underside of the crown and reads "Aurore, Imported Velour Body, Made in France".
The interior of the hat shows some wear and a few light marks while the satin brim shows some spotting and wear, though this vibrant hat remains in good condition overall.
