Details of this Fedora in velvet felt

This fedora in velvet felt is available in several colours on our e-shop: in black for a chic look and purple in a beautiful bright tone. The light and feminine ribbon trim gives this hat its special character for a timelessness and elegance piece.

Velvet felt, this beautiful material is, like cashmere for a jumper, soft to the touch. It is also flattering to the face thanks to its velvety appearance that reflects on the face. Our creation is light, which makes it really confortable to wear. Especially if you work it with care and lightness as our Maison does. Moreover, this soft material is waterproof.

The history of the fedora hat

The fedora hat has always been considered a classic in the world of hats. its origins comes of the name fedora, from the hat worn by the actress Sarah Bernhardt when she played the heroine in the play called “Fedora” of Victorien Sardou’s.

Since then, the hat was worn by many actors such as Humphrey Bogart in the film “Casablanca”. Alain Delon and Jean-Paul Belmondo in the film “Borsalino” By Harrison Fort in the “Indiana Jones” film series and finally by Michael Jackson in “Billie”. The fedora hat has become an essential fashion accessory. This hat is now worn by both men and women in their everyday life.

Maintenance

To maintain velvet and melusine felts, they should be brushed regularly with a clothes brush. For example, to remove any dust and to raise the hair. Indeed, brushing gives the hat its lustre and shine.

Packaging

First, Maison Fabienne Delvigne carefully wraps the hats in tissue paper. Then we place it in a black hat box tailor made by Maison Fabienne Delvigne and we place a certificate of authenticity next to the hat. Finally, we delicately perfume the hat with Guerlain’s “Eau de Cashmere”. A reminiscence of the beautiful collaboration between our two Maisons.
