"Elspeth" is so pretty and versatile. This purple and black tweed fabric cloche hat is handmade and one of a kind. The asymmetrical brim rolls upward all around. It's the type of brim that you can play around with and get lots of different shapes. The top and band was recycled from a ladies winter coat. The top brim is a pretty tone on tone vintage brocade fabric; the underside of the brim is black corduroy. Embellished with a coordinating tweed bow and vintage metal button. Fully lined in soft cotton for comfort. Inner grosgrain ribbon helps keep the hat clean. Packs and travels very well. You'll be cozy and warm in this great hat!!

Take this measurement three times to make sure it’s accurate. Generally speaking, a small range is 20-21 inches; medium is 21 ½ to 22 ½ inches and large is 23 to 24 inches.
