Vintage Taupe Ladies 1930s Ostrich feather Bowler Style Hat in Box In the Depression era hats was the time of fewer materials to stretch than ever before. Fashionable women made the very most of what they had, contorting simple shapes into hundreds of variations. Small, shallow-crowned buying hats were often adorned with veils and grosgrain ribbons, which brought a touch of the feminine to an otherwise utilitarian wardrobe. Veils came down to the eyes, nose, or chin – just enough to shade the eyes and add a touch of mystery. I'm guessing from ads I found at that period this hat and box match the 30's. I am no expert on vintage hats. So this may be a replica, but the box it was stored in was in an attic for at least 30+ years. I can verify.
