Vintage 1960s Chartreuse Green Turquoise Floral Brocade Pillbox Hat | Pleated Mid Century Women's Hat

Vintage 1960s Chartreuse Green & Turquoise Floral Brocade Pillbox Hat

Description

A striking vintage 1960s pillbox hat featuring an elegant structured silhouette covered entirely in luminous floral brocade. The unusual color combination pairs a warm chartreuse olive green ground with shimmering turquoise blue floral detailing, creating a sophisticated jewel-toned effect that changes subtly with the light.

The tall cylindrical crown is beautifully constructed with horizontal folded and pleated bands wrapping around the sides, giving the otherwise streamlined pillbox silhouette wonderful architectural dimension. The flat circular crown and softly piped upper edge complete the clean mid-century profile.

The woven floral pattern features stylized roses, blossoms, leaves and stems rendered in contrasting turquoise threads. With no added bows, feathers or other embellishments, the luxurious textile and sculptural construction remain the focus of the design.

A particularly chic example of 1960s occasion millinery with a color palette that feels remarkably modern today.
