Cloche Hat

Cloche hat: the legendary hat of the 1920s

As its name suggests, this hat shape is in the form of a bell, recognizable by its round crown and lowered brim. It symbolizes the elegance of the Roaring Twenties (1920-1930), when the watchword of this post-war period was "modernity". Making a comeback today, the cloche hat will appeal to all stylish women who wish to protect themselves elegantly from daily weather conditions.
