The 1911 fall hat scene introduces the Pierrini crown high pointed style with ten inch heights and narrow brims, alongside enduring large hats with minimal crown height. Old fashioned poke bonnets remain stylish, while practical wearability guides headgear evolution. The ultra smart large hat remains a dress item, not for daily use.
The article surveys oil fashioned bonnets trimmed with fringe and velvet hats lined with satin or taffeta. It notes velvet as the winter hat material, the rise of taffeta trims, large head sizes, and wide ribbons. Feather details include ostrich plumes, aigrettes, coque feathers, and paradise feathers. Colors remain mostly subdued with selective brights, and flowers are limited to velvet pansies and large velvet blooms.
