1910's - 1920's Metropolitan Hat Pattern

1910's - 1920's Metropolitan Hat PatternFW269 - 1910's - 1920's Metropolitan Hat Pattern. Includes Women's Small, Medium, Large Hat Sizes in this one pattern. This hat dates from the early 20th century and represents a transitional period in millinery history -- following the oversize Victorian confections of veiling and stuffed birds, but before the head-hugging cloches of the 1920s. Fast and easy to sew, it has a casual and slightly slouchy look, with a modest brim and fabric flowers at center front. There are just three pattern pieces: Brim, Band, and Crown. Each piece is cut twice -- out of fabric, or fabric and complementary lining -- for a fully-lined, easy-to-wear chapeau. The decorative fabric Rosettes can be fashioned out of the hat fabric, contrasting materials such as lace, tulle, or glittering silk, or entirely replaced by a vintage brooch or dramatic button. Suggested Fabrics: Linens, wools, silks, medium-weight cottons, denim, corduroy, fleece. NOTE: For soft, drapey fabrics, lightly interface the Band and Brim to maintain the proper silhouette. Great for Flapper Era, Roaring 20's Edwardian Period hats. Public Enemies, Lady In Red, Faye Rae, King Kong.
