I bought this hat for my wife's birthday to top off a suffragette impression she is building. She hasn't seen it yet, but it's impressive - black net over a black fabric base, lined in red satin. It has appropriate trims, including black ribbon, a small black ostrich plume, and black silk flowers. It could easliy be trimmed even more, but it's good to wear out of the box. It's appropriately large for the Edwardian period. All in all, a very nice hat!

Was for a Christmas Dickens themed party and we fit in nicely. Good compliments on our outfits. They seem as well made or better than expected

I purchased this hat to go with a ca. 1918 suffragette costume for Halloween. The hat arrived on time and was packaged very well. There was a strong odor (probably the dye) to the hat when it arrived, but after airing for a few days in my office the odor was completely gone. The quality is excellent in the lace, flowers, ribbon, and overall construction of the hat. It fit my 22 inch round head perfectly. I received lots of compliments on my costume for Halloween!

This hat will be a perfect compliment to my Lucille Walking Suit.

Would be nice if hair pins were available. But I will make my own. It might be fun.

I love this hat. I wore to a recent event.

Simply marvelous! This Panama straw Boater is a First-Class beauty! Enough said!

The high price caught me off guard at first, but once I actually received the hat and got to take a look at it, I realized that its price is justified. Handmade and feels as authentic as can be for a panama hat, I was most pleased that a hat, for once, wasn't too small or constrictive for my otherwise large head. As a matter of fact, the hat is just barely slightly large, which I'm 100% okay with after a lifetime of small hats. It works well not just as an authentic period piece, it can also work as other costumes such as a CIA agent in Cuba if you so choose (as a humorous example). In short, a high-quality, handmade hat that can accommodate large heads (as long as you order the correct size).

The product and well as the service were flawless. I can’t think of anything that did not meet or exceed expectations. The Boater is first rate quality. I will be back for more items.

Computer display showed details of product and that's exactly what I got.

I cannot wait to wear this at the Oaks race. Great hat, authentic, highest quality and fits perfect. Gotta give it a big Roll Tide

My husband LOVES it!!!

This is the REAL DEAL, not a cheap costumed knockoff!

The hat fits perfect and I believe it will last many years

Good quality Fast delivery Order one size up, don't guess, I am a solid L but should have ordered a XL. Ordered another hat for someone else. Same issue. Quality was great but he was a M and should have bought a L....

Son just LOVES this one! Looks EXACTLY like what the Dapper Dans wear at Disneyland! We will be coming back for the vest soon! :)

I owe several Straw Boater hats but this one by far exceeded my exceptions.

This was a great addition to my hat collection. Fits great and I like wearing it when I am out and about town.

Excellent quality, very satisfied with my purchase.

Arrived neat and clean and intact in well packed box. Delighted to have such a handsome hat.
