What You Should Know Before Searching Denise Nadine Design Hats by Period
Hat History:
Hat structures or foundations can serve many periods. The look of the hat can be changed depending on the choice of fabric and embellishment. Just as fashions come and go in our contemporary times, hats change as well. Certain hat styles appear and reappear throughout the centuries.
For example:
- The Gainsborough style spanned several centuries coming in and out of vogue.
- The Tricorn has come and gone many times.
- The Directoire (1760's) bonnet was also a Quaker bonnet and came back into fashion again in the 1880's.
Basic Foundation Shapes:
Some basic hat foundation shapes can be used for a variety of time periods as well. As an example, the Mrs. Bowerman pattern style can be used for the Eighteenth Century large hats, late 1890's, or the Edwardian era.
