1960s Mr. John Black Velvet  Homburg Hat

 

 

 


Hats designed by Mr. John have a distinctive flair - they're recognizable for their exuberant take on a classic style.  This case in point is a loose interpretation of the classic men's homberg style.  In black velvet,  the high crown is creased at the top, and the underside of the brim is trimmed in white slubbed satin, and trapunto stitched in white for subtle effect. A velvet cord with pearlized white rosettes trims the crown. The crown is lined in a pastel floral printed acetate.  Bearing a Mr. John Classic label and a Famous-Barr store label, it is in excellent condition. Brim is 3" deep, crown is 4" high, circumference is 20.5". $225
