A couple of months ago, I quickly trimmed this simple 18th century hat in the hotel for a quick last minute costume opportunity.
As much as I like this simple trimming, I’ve envisioned a few additions.
Why not?
Deconstructing and reconstructing is an 18th century period accurate thing to do!
Therefore, I thought I’d share the progress of alterations and different looks from one hat!
The key element I wanted to incorporate into my hat was the use of ruched ribbon, which I learned at my hat trimming class with the Costume Design Center last year.
Super easy to do, Iām now in love with this hat!
