The Bar suit - hat

Set in beige, shantung jacket with a suit collar and coat tails, black taffeta cotton skirt and beige straw hat. This outfit summarizes the revolutionary "New Look" launched by Christian Dior for his first collection: silk jacket with small, rounded shoulders, tight body and sharp waist, "padding" on the hips and long skirt above the ankles.

Two-piece hat crown and brim, held in braided straw and coiled. The cup is a semi-sphere and is almost hidden by the very open tapered wing. Internal reinforcement tape.
