The tricorne, a symbol of elegance and grandeur, makes its triumphant entrance into Grandchester in the late 18th century. This iconic hat, with its three corners pointing towards the zenith of surrealism, captures the essence of an era filled with artistic expression. As we stroll through history, we come across a little wooden midshipman shop sign from around 1750. Crafted from wood, it serves as a reminder of the maritime influence on fashion during this time. The tricorne adorning this sign is not just a mere accessory but represents the spirit of adventure and exploration. In another masterpiece by Thomas Gainsborough, John Plampin dons his tricorne hat with pride. The artist skillfully captures every detail, showcasing the intricate design and craftsmanship that went into creating these hats. It's no wonder that even Bumble the Beadle himself chose to wear one in 1939. Even Catherine the Great couldn't resist embracing this fashionable trend. In Alexander K MacDonald's portrait from 1937, she exudes power and sophistication while wearing her exquisite tricorne hat. Its presence adds an air of regality to her already majestic persona. Moving forward in time, we encounter Foxy the Footpad gracing a picture story book cover design. With his mischievous grin hidden beneath his tricorne hat, he becomes an intriguing character who captivates readers' imaginations. Henderson Hats Advertisement showcases how versatile these hats can be for both men and women alike. Photographs featuring models adorned in spring hats embellished with veils and flowers demonstrate their versatility as well as their ability to elevate any outfit effortlessly. Edwardian women embraced this timeless headwear trend back in 1912 when they paired their elegant gowns with tricornes or bicornes hats made from luxurious materials such as wool, linen & velvet - truly epitomizing style at its finest.
