Today I am researching hats 1850 through 1960s, in preparation for a presentation next week at the Churchill County Museum. I am camped out at Starbucks, raiding all of The Dreamstress' pinboards, and drooling over many a fine chapeau.
This just serves to remind me that I don't have a proper hat for the Titanic Tea coming up April 14th. The tea shoppe we're invading is rather a small space, so I should probably steerage-clear of a ginormous Merry Widow, and go for a smaller profile.
So in the spirit of inspiration, here are some 19teens hat of the smaller variety...

| 1914 |

| 1908-1912. Okay, it's not that small...but it's not HUGE either...is it? |

Mrs. John B. Trevor, ca. 1914, photographer's wife. Autochrome |
 |
|
Emily Winthrop, ca. 1910 Autochrome by John Bond Trevor Sr. |
 |
| 1913 |
 |
| 1912 |
Now just figuring out how to construct these... but that's the fun part!
