1950s Elsa Schiaparelli Red and Black Felt Eastern Hat MRS Couture

Striking red and black felt hat by Elsa Schiaparelli! This structured hat has aristocratic eastern influences, resembling a cossack hat, a Manchurian hat, and a Qing dynasty winter court official hat! The hat has a black upturned brim that rises above the red crown in the front, and tapers to a narrow brim in the back; the interior of the brim is red. The brim features a delicate, thin, black, grosgrain ribbon with horizontal red stitching. The ribbon wraps around the hat entirely, appearing to originate from in between a notch in the brim at the back of the hat, and ending in a long, flat bow at the front. The body of the hat was made in Italy.
