Vintage 1960's white finely knitted acrylic (or acrylic blend) jersey fabric turban. The hat is structured with folds of fabric, padding and a stiffened and a stiffened mesh lining.
The attached scarf can be tied or elegantly draped.
A bit of history on the provenance….
This hat was purchased as part of the extensive wardrobe belonging to an astute woman of fashion (I call her Leopard Lady as she loved leopard print) who lived to 100 years. Her daughter informed me that up until the age of 70 she always wore heels, hats and a handbag and was recognized and admired in her local high street in the Midlands.
The collection purchased includes coats, blouses, dresses, bags, hats (Large fit) and shoes (size 39 / 40) which will all be listed for sale.
