Slim, fitted top hats supplemented the fashionably short hairstyles of the 1920s. The rounded fitted crown of this hat was composed of three parts. Its narrow, stitched brim is raised up on the left side, angles down on the right and is laid in two folds. Above it are three rolled rep ribbons. The underside of the brim is trimmed in velvet.
