Kimono goodwood revival

Kimono goodwood revivalKimono Red straw buntal hat with vintage kimono fabric bow and back Hand shaped and hand sewn using a vintage wooden hat block. This is a one off item, made from vintage kimono fabric. It is designed to fit all headsizes. Originally Kimono was the Japenese word for clothing or the 'thing to wear'. I have completely fallen in love with the beautiful crepe fabrics and beautiful designs.

It is lined with gold silk dupion

Trimmed with a gold leaf tipped feather

Worn on the back of the head like a pillbox hat

Vintage Japenese ivory velvet maple leaves with a birdcage veil mounted on an ivory satin headband
