Vogue Jockey hat

14/12/2023

Voilà a new hat is ready for swiss winter
This is my new handcrafted hat from Vogue Millinery pattern of 1930s, Jockey hat.
Made from cotton denim, 100% organic cotton wadding, cotton lining. As a silk flower artist I thought that this lovely hat is missing some kind of beautiful personalisation, so, two simple silk flowers were added
The hat is comfortable, warm, cosy and I love the féminine look of it
