Simple Hats

I tried to stick to simpler hats instead of the fashion plate images often seen.  The bonnet style will have it's own post later.  Some of these are a bit more decorated than others, but there seemed to be a fairly repetitive style.  Ribbon, or possibly fabric, is tacked around the crown of the hat.  The level of "puffing" the ribbon seems to vary widely, however.  Some are straw, some covered in silk, some add feathers.  I'm still looking for any other style of simple trimming, but I haven't seen it yet in this type of image.  All images are from the Lewis Walpole Gallery.
