Tag hats
Sonia Delaunay. Driving caps. Silk and Wool. 1924–28. As seen on Kate Davies’ blog.
It’s been so warm lately that my hair keeps falling in my face, making me sweat and making it very difficult to work. So I made a little cap to keep my hair on top of my head while I’m working.
It looks a little silly, but it does the job. And it’s breathable: made from left-over tobacco linen and lined with lightweight cotton voile. Sewn by hand, without any machine stitches. Perfect for summer days spent working over a hot iron.
Never wear a hat that has more character than you.Utah Phillips

Hats from the costume company that worked on The King’s Speech. The movie really had some great hats. I especially love these brown top hats.
