Vintage 1960s Mr M Originals Yellow Floral Hat Silk Flower Covered Straw Brim Women's Spring Garden Party Millinery

Vintage 1960s Mr. M Originals Yellow Floral Hat – Silk Flowers Straw Brim Garden Party Hat

Description

A spectacular vintage circa 1960s statement hat by Mr. M Originals, completely transformed into a lush garden of dimensional flowers in sunny shades of yellow, apricot, peach, cream, blush pink, soft lavender and muted green.

The structured crown is lavishly covered with layers of vintage fabric flowers, creating an exuberant floral surface with wonderful depth and texture. Individual blossoms vary in size, material and construction, including silky petals, delicate sheer flowers and wonderfully aged velvet leaves and floral accents. The result has the romantic appearance of an entire spring garden gathered onto a hat.

The predominantly golden yellow palette is punctuated by warm apricot and peach blossoms, pale pink and lavender flowers, creamy yellow petals and touches of soft green foliage. Some flowers feature contrasting stamens and beautifully detailed centers, adding even more dimension when viewed up close.

A narrow turned brim of shiny yellow woven straw frames the base and provides just enough structure beneath the profusion of flowers. The interior is beautifully finished in coordinating golden yellow grosgrain and retains its original “Originals by Mr. M.” designer label.

An exceptionally joyful piece of mid-century millinery with the maximalist floral decoration that made statement hats such an important part of fashionable spring and summer wardrobes. This would be especially wonderful for Easter, a garden wedding, Kentucky Derby styling or a collector looking for an unapologetically feminine 1960s floral hat.
