Brimless hats were called Calot hats. They fit onto the back of the head and were held in place with combs and bobby pins. This hat was ideal for wearing with freshly styled hair that a woman would not want to cover up.
This Calot consists of a black and white woven straw cap with a sheer brim that flows out up to 7".
I show it one way but you can pin it on any way you want. It's in great shape! The cap is about 8" across.
This vintage hat is ready for your next vintage affair, church, USO dance, reenactors event, vintage fashion show, wedding hat, funeral hat, and great for Movie, Tv and theatre costume. Or maybe even the Kentucky Derby! Lately, I've enjoyed movies with hats like this, such as The Guernsey and Potato Peel Pie Society” and “ Breathe”. PLEASE ASK QUESTIONS BEFORE PURCHASING!
