title: Cloche contributor: Pavey, Sarah date: 1923 language: No Language description: Cloche hat of beige straw. The high, domed crown is created of fine beige straw which has been crocheted. At the base of the crown is a wide band of beige grosgrain ribbon edged with a very thin ribbon band, with a finely pleated section to one side. The cloche has a small brim, mostly down-turned. Over the entire crown and brim is sewn thin "ribbon" bands in a different type and shade of straw, forming several large leaf forms and filling the rest of the space with scrolling decoration. The interiors of the leaf forms are hand-painted in blue, purple, brown and green. The interior of the crown is lined in a tan/copper fabric, and the underside of the brim is lined in a cream fabric. There are no labels in the hat. subject: Social Life and Customs - Clothing - Accessories - Hats subject: hats subject: headgear subject: straw work subject: cloches (hats) coverage: 1923 coverage: United States rights: Public rights: Attribution Non-commercial No Derivatives rights: All Texas Fashion Collection content and images are copyrighted. type: Physical Object format: Measurements: 20 cm. front to back; 19 cm. side to side; 19 cm. from top of crown to lowest point of brim. format: Image identifier: local-cont-no: 1966.018.038 identifier: https://digital.library.unt.edu/ark:/67531/metadc39116/ identifier: ark: ark:/67531/metadc39116
