PRELIMINARY INFORMATION
that will last a whole afternoon or a whole day, wear comfortable clothes.
Pay particular attention to the head size of your next hat. Nothing spoils a woman’s appearance quicker than a hat that is so large that it slips down over the ears or the too-small hat that rides perilously on the top of the head or slips rakishly over one ear. As a general rule, the older woman looks well in a hat that sits squarely on the head. Draped handmade hats are to be preferred to the severity of a blocked hat. The brimless hat is too hard for the older woman. A hat that shades the face a little is more becoming.
