The Classic 1940’s vintage hat: vampy, fun, and a nostalgic nod to the styles that made the 1940’s and the twentieth century as a whole.
Vintage never goes out of style - that’s why it’s vintage! But as we settle into the 21st century, designers and some of the hottest fashion boutiques are really embracing classic vintage as a way to celebrate the beautiful silhouettes that made fashion what it was for an entire century.
Of course designers keep looking ahead, with new and innovative styles, but it’s impossible to design without inspiration from the past. And along the way, what could be more fun than donning a classic 1940’s hat, complete with feather and/or beads, and pulling that fishnet veil down to your red lipsticked-lips? Pair it with a body-hugging, Old Hollywood dress, T-strap heels, and your look is trendy and timeless all at once.
