Womens Straw Bird Cage Flower Cap, Black and Brown Woven Veil Netting Hat, Vintage 50s Designer Small Crown Fascinator selling Mini Hat

This darling vintage Brandt of New York and Paris black small crown cap hat with veil netting is quite different. Fun brown twisted straw roping detailing around the rim and a woven straw flower on one side. Black - high end quality - Woven Hat. Intact veil (no holes or rips) that will cover the front of the face under the chin (depending upon your face shape and size). It's too long to just cover the eyes only.

**Ellen Kate's Closet - Born in 1918, Ellen Kate was a very fashionable woman who was involved with many Ladies and Professional Business Clubs during her lifetime. She even ran for Town Council in the 1950's when no other woman had ever served on council (and lost probably because she was a woman). She lived a busy vibrant life raising 3 young children on her own after her husband passed away early in their marriage. She was always interested in politics, an avid swimmer, healthy eater, and party goer. Her closets contain wonderful vintage fashions from the 40s through the 90s. Hundreds of shoes, hats, gowns, and gloves worn to business functions or weekend parties. A history of Newspaper clippings show off her many fashions, no outfit ever the same. Most of her items were worn very few times so condition of her items is very nice. All hats are in original boxes as are the majority of her shoes.
