About this work
From 1945 hats became smaller in reaction to the large models that had been fashionable during World War II. This hat, made by the Legroux Soeurs (Legroux sisters), famous Paris modistes, is an early example of this trend. Mrs Brusse-Urtebise bought her hats in Paris. The same model can be seen in a French magazine of October 1945.
