From the Closet of: Gigi Burris

Label: Hats by Lucille 

Era: 1960s

About the Item:

A playful combination of leopard print and vibrant red bouclé, this vintage hat features a classic 1960s pillbox silhouette. The leopard appears to be hair-on-hide, while the richly textured bouclé features pronounced loops that lend the design its sculptural character. “The combination of red and leopard is so vibrant and fun,” says milliner Gigi Burris, who particularly admires the hat’s interior construction. “It’s so well done on the inside, with this gathered lining and these tiny little gold petals that have been sewn in.” Made by Hats by Lucille, the piece is a charming example of the attention to detail that Burris prizes in vintage millinery.
