Meet "Faye," a women's white, ivory, and black lace covered Straw Summer Small Brim Hat that is just the ticket for Kentucky Derby, Ladies Tea, or Church. The straw is ivory sinamay covered in lace. The crown (top) is draped in black vintage lace and was originally a vintage pillbox hat that I attached to the brim. It is hand sewn and one of a kind. It is adorned with an oversize black silk rose and rosebud. An inner grosgrain ribbon headband helps protect it from becoming soiled. It perches atop the head rather than fitting and being pulled down on the forehead. A narrow black headband helps keep it stable on the head.

In stock and ready to ship.


FIT AND SIZE:
Sits atop the head with a narrow headband so it has no intention of going anywhere.

HOW TO MEASURE YOUR HEAD SIZE:
Place a flexible tape measure around the widest part of your head above your ears and eyebrows, where the hat will sit. 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.


SHIPPING:
Free shipping in the contiguous US via USPS parcel ground select (2-9 days).

CUSTOM ORDERS:
I am happy to make a hat just for you according to your wishes. I send lots of photos and options during the process so that there are no surprises and you get just what you want. Please send me a message and we will work out the details. One caveat: I will not "copy" the work of another artist or maker.
