Vintage 1960s Robert Hyman Milwaukee Golden Straw Grosgrain Ribbon Hat Sculptural Bow Mid Century Women's Millinery

Vintage 1950s Robert Hyman Milwaukee Golden Straw & Grosgrain Ribbon Hat – Sculptural Bow

Description

A striking vintage circa 1950s hat by Robert Hyman of Milwaukee, featuring an exceptionally sculptural combination of golden woven straw and coordinating grosgrain ribbon.

The tall rounded crown is constructed with alternating vertical bands of golden grosgrain ribbon and narrow braided straw, creating a beautifully architectural striped effect that radiates from a small circular woven accent at the top. The same alternating ribbon-and-straw treatment continues across the softly shaped brim, giving the entire hat remarkable texture and visual movement.

A dramatic wide woven straw band encircles the crown and forms an oversized sculptural knot and bow at the front. The broad dimensional loops and gracefully extended tails create a statement-making focal point while maintaining the sophisticated tailored quality associated with mid-century millinery.

The warm golden wheat and mustard tones give the hat a rich monochromatic appearance, while the contrast between smooth grosgrain and textured woven straw makes the construction particularly interesting. The interior retains its original “Robert Hy-Man Milwaukee” label.

An unusual and beautifully constructed piece of American mid-century millinery with wonderful architectural detailing and a dramatic silhouette.
