I love 1930s avant garde hats, and the Piko Paris black velvet 'cossack turban' hat I just found for the shop is no exception. I see a resemblance to the Schiaparelli hat Cecil Beaton photographed Wallis Simpson wearing for British Vogue in 1935. Would you wear it?

I wouldn't, but I LOVE it on Schiap (L) and of course those who are like her...
That hat looks so extraordinary, I would wear it, would be fun! :D I just bought today my first turban hat.. So fun to wear!
Yours sincerely,

I think it's absolutely adorable! I would love to wear one so long as it was in a neutral colour. xx
definitely would!, 1935-40 is my favourite hat era.
Swoon, what a beautiful hat x
Yes of course! I love crazy hats the most...
Yes, Wallis Simpson does give one hope that we mere fashion mortals could pull of a deco dunce cap with such élan!
Indeed, I would definitely wear this elegant, artfully shaped topper. The solid black hue and soft fabric lend it a very versatile feel and ability to partner well with an array of looks.

Totally would wear that! It reminds me of a hat I tried on in Paris 25 years ago. I haven't bought it, still regret that.
Oh, I love it and would defenitly wear it! I´m also a big fan of avant garde hats.
Also, thank you for your sweet words on my blog earlier today. Your blog in one of my top 3, and I think you have the most divine sense of style, so being complimented by you is a big compliment in itself.
