Highlights

  • Handpicked by Petershams
  • Vintage from the 1960s
  • Supplies for making crafts
  • Materials: Fabric

This vintage 1960s (possibly earlier) capeline is made from seagrass straw and crin braid, spiraled into a hat body which can easily be steamed and molded into a terrific summer hat! The seagrass braid has an intricate pattern and is made slightly more rigid with the addition of clear crin-like threads that support the structure of the braid.

Capeline measures:
Flat measurement from crown tip to brim: 28cm (11 inches)
Brim width from side crown to brim edge: 9cm (3.5 inches)
____________________________________________

Petershams Guide to hat bodies:
Cone: This is the perfect size for most fascinators and for blocking out hat crowns.
Flares: This is the size inbetween a cone and a capeline, so good for hats with smaller brims or larger fascinators.
Capelines: This is the largest hat body, great for wide brimmed fitted hats.

I’m not a hat maker (although it’s yet another undertaking I’d gladly embrace) but I wanted a simple hat with a vintage “lampshade” silhouette. This is perfect and arrived quickly and well packed - look forward to ordering again!
