Vintage Mr. Hi’s Navy Blue Velvet Feather Hat Rhinestone Wide Brim Formal Church Derby Statement Hat

Vintage Mr. Hi’s Navy Blue Velvet Feather Hat with Rhinestone Appliqué – Wide Brim Statement Hat

Description

A spectacular vintage Mr. Hi’s statement hat in deep midnight navy blue, combining plush velvet with an extravagant sweep of tonal feathers and sparkling rhinestone embellishments. The structured crown rises above a broad, softly shaped brim for a dramatic and sophisticated silhouette.

The focal point is the lavish feather treatment sweeping across the front and upward around the crown. Two overlapping velvet appliqués are outlined with rows of brilliant rhinestones and finished with small rhinestone floral centers, adding a glamorous jeweled accent against the rich monochromatic navy palette.

Mr. Hi’s hats are particularly recognizable for their bold occasion-wear styling, dramatic trims and statement silhouettes. This example captures that aesthetic beautifully, with its combination of velvet, feathers, rhinestones and generous brim.

Based on the styling and construction, this piece appears consistent with later 20th-century Mr. Hi’s millinery, likely circa 1980s–1990s.
