Seriously though. I love your style. I hope you don't mind me using you as inspiration for my own outfits.

50s homburg conversion of a nutria Borsalino. Been setting on this one for a long time waiting to find the perfect ribbon width/color that matches Borsalino styling.
This will remain a fav as I love everything about her. Was size 5 and now a very comfy 5 1/2+

Thanks, Brent!
Working on a Stetsonian right now for someone we all know. So far, so good and hope it turns out as nice, or nicer.

More very clean examples, Steve. Love those bowlers.

J. Hückel´s Söhne Wien, possibly around 1910. This Stiff Felt was from the time of the Hapsburg Empire. The Liner has a slight green tinge with an JHS Wien Crest. Interesting low profile Box Bow design. The overall condition is very good. I found this Stiff Felt back in 2017.

Brüder Böhm Wien "Ultra" possibly later 1920s. This Wool Stiff Felt is in great condition but on the heavy side at 189 grams. It still has the original size stamp at the rear of the sweatband. I found this Wool Stiff Felt back in 2016.

Brüder Böhm K. U. K. Hof - Hutfabrik Wien (1914) Post Card. I found this back in 2017.

Quality "Sylva", Novelty in Loden (Rough), Fashion - Melange: 845 Grayish Green, 846 Tawney, 847 Iron Gray, 848 Olive Brown, 849 Fashion Green, 851 Fashion Blue

Another from my bespoke collection, a black hat to a funeral, what else?

Tina said, reluctantly, that you could see her hat too, it comes with an amusing story. We were out with friends a few months ago, My friend took his trilby off and left on the seat beside him, his lady, having just returned from the necessary, pulled the chair out, didn't see the hat and promptly sat on it.

Once the ensuing domestic subsided the fellow held up the crushed trilby and declared it worthy of the waste bin. "Don't throw it away," Tina said, adding, "I'll have it." So it was she inherited a crushed trilby.

In her cabin she coaxed the hat into a dome shape, then carefully squashed the dome flat so that it was even all round she then tacked a couple of stitches to keep it in place. A piece of hairnet, dyed to match the hat colour now covered the crown along with a fabric adornment.

Today she wore it to the funeral, in the style of a fascinator and was complimented more than once.

Here's how a squashed trilby becomes a Fascinator.

Rick, maybe you didn’t, but you have the cool look of an artist who could pull off a cool chrome dragon such as that one!

A Cavanagh forty! One of my grail hats. So jealous.

I'm a 7 1/8, you know, just in case.

You’re sporting quite a handsome outfit, Mr. Venhorst. The fedora is a fine complement to your wide notched lapel three piece suit. I’ve been glad to see your sartorialism on the forum!
