These tall hats are made of 100% wool over a hand stitched
buckram foundation with wired edges. This style has a separate tip, and stock,
sewn by hand. Additionally, the brim is also finished such that the
sewing is hidden. Made from wool. Elizabethan tall hats work best if made from
lightweight wool or cashmere. I usually have black available but if you need a

German Tall Hat |
Details of Pleated hats:
These hats are worn by all genders and most classes throughout the late
1500's. These are 100% silk brocade over a buckram
foundation, lined with silk dupioni. Brims can either have a point in the front
- very English or you can choose the Spanish style of having a round brim.
These hats work very well with silk brocade,
silk velvet, cotton velveteen or wool. Please let me know what color/s you want and I'll send
along pics of what I have. I have access to pretty extensive array of silk
brocade fabrics. Finished hat is 5" tall.

Supplying your own fabric: It is fine if you want to
supply your own fabric so that your hat is made of the same fabric as your gown
or suit. All I ask if that you supply high quality, suitable fabrics. If you're
not sure, send me an email with fiber content and a pic if available. It takes
about 1 yard of 60" fabric to make any of these hats.
