Vintage 1950s Red Cocktail Hat with Flowers

A little hat with a lot of confidence — this 1950s cocktail piece captures the glamour and grace of post-war fashion.

Made from woven straw and finished with a soft felt lining, it’s crowned with deep red hydrangeas and a fine black veil that hints at mystery and evening elegance.

It’s easy to imagine this one worn with pearls and a cinched dress, laughter spilling from a dance floor, lipstick freshened in a powder-room mirror.

A wonderful piece for collectors, costumers, or anyone who still believes that getting dressed should feel like a celebration.

💬 Deb’s Note

I always think of these little hats as moments in time — each one perched on a head filled with stories. This one has that perfect 1950s charm: confident, feminine, a touch playful. Whether you wear it or display it, it’ll bring a whisper of that era’s sparkle back to life.
