A re-purposed black felt hat with a satin facing was used for this 1893 feathered style.
Here's the image from Harpers Bazar that was in the inspiration for the hat.
The crown is flat, and the brim curls up.
The base of the crown is wrapped with fine black tulle.
Gold silk duppioni loops were formed with fine wire hidden under narrow black satin ribbons.
Several vintage and contemporary black ostrich feathers were tucked in amongst the loops.
A gold cord was knotted and placed at the join of the loops as a visual anchor.
The left side has less adornment than the right side.
The loops and feathers add the requisite height to this hat, typical of the 1890's
The brim curls upward and is bent into a slight point at the front.
From the underside you can easily see the satin facing on the brim, as well as the petersham ribbon that forms the inner hat band.ß
