If you are after the a great all round summer hat that offers protection from the sun both for your face and neck then this is the perfect hat for you!
Made from 100% linen the 'Waterfall' sun hat offer full protection from the sun. The gentle layering of brims at the back paired with the muslin tie gives the hat a romantic style that can easily be worn for a day at the beach or gardening at home and then easily styled up to wear out.
The front section of the brim is stiffened with a line of milliners brim reed. This allows the brim to hold a shape and not droop but still allows you to have freedom to either wear the brim up or down. The back section of the brim is made up of two overlays of natural linen that are cut on the bias which gives the two layers their soft edge. The brims at the back have no stiffening at all, this allows them to drape over your neck giving you full protection from the sun, it also gives you more freedom of movement, as even when bent foreword or especially when gardening your neck is still protected from the harmful suns rays.
The hat is finished with a high quality muslin tie that adds a lovely romantic touch as well as being practical. The tie can be used to tie the hat slightly tighter to help with fit and especially on windy days you can always tie the muslin tie under your chin to really keep your hat on in the wind. This hat is also great at travelling too! To pack your hat lay it on a flat surface and roll the brim into itself from the non stiffened side until you reach the stiffened part of the brim and then you can put it into a bag ready to pop back out when needed.
The hat is lined with a lightweight 100% cotton poplin to help keep you cool even in the hot weather.

How to measure your head:
-Place a flexible tape measure gently around your head just above the top of the ears, making certain the tape lies midway on your occipital bone (that little bump in the middle of the back of your head).
*Don't pull the tape too tightly or your hat will fit that tightly. Measure 2 or 3 times to be certain.
