Description

Fashionable women in the early 20th century always wore hats. The fashion of the day determined its color, shape and size. Throughout it all, the pretty hat pin remained a staple and it held both her hat in place. Decorative pins, shown in the case, complimented a woman’s outfits. A post-war Suzy Lee creation from California, the purple colored hat made of Aurore velour featured purple netting that was easily tied behind the hat with two matching velour pins.
