EDITORS COMMENTS
Step into the enchanting world of Victorian childhood with these charming summer hats for young girls, captured in a beautiful photograph from 1886. The first hat, designed for a five-year-old, features a coarse basket-straw base, artfully trimmed with a plaid cambric handkerchief. The handkerchief is skillfully arranged to form a torsade and bow, adding a playful touch to the classic design. The hat sits high on the head, allowing for ample room to accommodate a young girl's growing hair. The second hat, suitable for a six-year-old, boasts a finer English straw base, lending an air of sophistication to the design. The brim of this hat is lined in rich red velvet, adding a pop of color and texture. Above the velvet lining, two bows of red and blue gauze ribbon gracefully adorn the hat, adding a feminine and elegant touch. The high collar and high neckline of the girls' dresses of the era are also subtly hinted at in the photograph, further emphasizing the Victorian era's fashion sensibilities. These delightful hats, with their intricate details and timeless charm, transport us back to a bygone era of innocence and elegance.
