Hollywood brim

[Mario]

You guys are killing me...

BTW: Sam - come to speak of ol' Spence...from what film did you pull your avatar?

Here are three photos of the Mallory Ten Pliafelt from different angles, showing the brim treatment a lot better.

Hollywood brim is hard to distinguish from thrown on the parcel shelf behind back seat and sat in the sun brim.

That hat Depp is wearing is one sharp hat, I would like to know who his hatter is also.

Johnny is the hatter

Sorry had to say it

Makes me yearn for the old days.

Mario: Thanks for posting the pics, but I still can't figure out how you do it. Can we have a primer?

 

[Mario]

Ok, so I took a couple of photos to show the whole thing in greater detail. Same hat again, Mallory Ten.

How big is the brim on that hat? I'm guessing it takes a healthy brim to pull of such a look. 2.75" plus?

 

[Mario]

This a 2 3/4" brim, but I also used the same look on 2 1/2" (my Stetson Sovereign for example) and 2 3/8" brims (as on my brown Whippet).

Did you use steam to make them stay? Looks great, by the way. You wear them very well!

Thanks. I think I have ideas now on how to try it.

hey! looks like you have a little bit of Richard Dreyfuss wearing a hat going on there! (meant as a compliment)

.i enjoy his films, 'Let it Ride' always makes me laugh and you got the same cheeky smirk

I seem to wear this hat almost allways with a hollywood-brim..

Yeah, I use a bit of steam, gently applied to the sides and front. When I have the right snap on the brim I use a bit of steam on the back to work out the break.

*Bump*

Just did a Hollywood brim to my 1940's Imperial Stetson. I think it's decent enough for my first try. Pics to follow tomorrow.

Cheers,
