In addition there is some metallic gold rickrack, visible along the edge of the centre of the hat and also within the body covered by pearls. The hat has a wire loop at either side, used to hold the hat onto the head, probably with the help of bobby pins. The label on the interior of the hat reads “Alfreda Inc. Paris New York” - Alfreda is known to have been active during the 1940s and 50s. The retailer’s label reads “French Fashions Steiger’s Springfield”. Steiger’s was a New England department store chain founded in Holyoke in 1896 - the Springfield store was considered the flagship store. The hat is in very good condition - there may be some rhinestones missing in the centre as the shape doesn’t appear complete, but it may simply have been made that way - in any case, this doesn’t detract from the hat, at least not in my opinion. The interior is lined in printed lamé fabric. The hat is sized as a 22 1\/2, so should fit a range of medium to large sized heads. \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan\u003eThis is a wonderful quality vintage cocktail hat - quite striking with all of the faux pearls and rhinestones, sure to be noticed!\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Poppy's Vintage Clothing","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":28405707178089,"sku":"284057071780_7722","price":95.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0273\/1559\/products\/Alfreda-Beaded-Pearled-Cocktail-Hat-1.jpg?v=1594446688"},{"product_id":"vintage-1950s-black-lace-corset-w-garter-straps-bra-s-lette-by-lady-marlene-34b","title":"Vintage 1950s Black Lace Corset w Garter Straps Bra S Lette by Lady Marlene 34B","description":"\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan\u003eThis is a wonderful 1950s era black lace corset with garter straps made in the U.S.A. under the “Bra-S-Lette by Lady Marlene” brand name.\u003cspan class=\"Apple-converted-space\"\u003e  \u003c\/span\u003eThe ILGWU (International Ladies Garment Workers Union) stamp on the label was in use between 1955 and 1963.\u003cspan class=\"Apple-converted-space\"\u003e  \u003c\/span\u003eThe corset is strapless and the bra top is pointed.\u003cspan class=\"Apple-converted-space\"\u003e  \u003c\/span\u003eIt is partially lined in a grey coloured nylon\/acetate mesh behind the lace panels while the rest is made of semi-opaque black nylon\/acetate rubber panels.\u003cspan class=\"Apple-converted-space\"\u003e  \u003c\/span\u003eThe piece closes with a series of metal eyes and hooks.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan\u003eRetailer’s label:\u003cspan class=\"Apple-converted-space\"\u003e  \u003c\/span\u003eAnna Globus Hill Montreal.\u003cspan class=\"Apple-converted-space\"\u003e  \u003c\/span\u003eAnna Globus Hill owned three lingerie shops on Queen Mary Road in the Snowdon area of Montreal.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan\u003eSizing: Size 34B is indicated, and although this should fit a medium size, please rely on the following measurements for fit (compare the measurements to those of a similar top that you might own):\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan\u003eWaist: 26” around, unstretched\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan\u003eHips:\u003cspan class=\"Apple-converted-space\"\u003e  \u003c\/span\u003e36” around, unstretched\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan\u003eOverall length: 16” at the front from the top of the bra to the top of the garter, exclusive of the garter strap\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan\u003eCondition:\u003cspan class=\"Apple-converted-space\"\u003e  \u003c\/span\u003eIt is in very good condition with no wear, tear, staining or odor - this looks to have seen little use and was well stored over the years.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan\u003eThis is a wonderful 1950s era corset - very sexy!\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Poppy's Vintage Clothing","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":28922922598505,"sku":"","price":0.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0273\/1559\/products\/Lady-Marlene-Black-Lace-Corset-w-Garters.jpg?v=1594446783"},{"product_id":"vintage-1950s-black-silk-cocktail-dress-miss-kk-toronto-a-size-not-an-age-size-l","title":"Vintage 1950s Black Silk Cocktail Dress Miss KK Toronto A Size Not An Age Size L","description":"\u003cp\u003eThis is a vintage 1950s cocktail dress featuring sophisticated styling in a black silk taffeta and chiffon combination.  The dress has a great label, which reads “Miss KK Toronto Reg’d - A Size!
