Equestrian Hat Felt

The felt cavalier hat is a black three-cornered hat with a round crown and a brim that is turned up on three sides, finished with gold-coloured braided trim. You wear it straight on your head over a white curly wig or loose over long hair, and it suits a musketeer costume or a baroque outfit with a long coat. The hat is designed for women and men and is especially popular for carnival and historical theme parties.

What does the three-pointed cavalier hat look like?

• The hat is black and has a matte felt look on the crown and brim.
• Gold-coloured braided trim runs along the entire brim and forms a triangular pattern on the side flaps.
• Because the brim is turned up on three sides, the hat has three points, one of which points forward.
• The material is 100% polyester.
• The hat is suitable for women and men.
• Washing instructions: do not wash, do not bleach, do not tumble dry, do not iron and do not dry clean.
• You will receive only the hat; the wig and costume are not included.

The cavalier hat as a style from the eighteenth century

The three-cornered hat was a common men's hat in large parts of Europe in the eighteenth century, worn by officers, sailors and aristocrats. The shape was created by turning up the wide brim of a round hat on three sides. In fancy dress costumes, it has become the signature look of musketeers and courtiers. Because the brim is turned up all around, your face remains visible and the silhouette is immediately recognisable, so choose this style if you want a historical look rather than a hat with a flat, wide brim.

A complete baroque or musketeer look around the cavalier hat

For men, the hat works well with a white curly wig, a long black coat and a lace jabot, creating a repeating black-and-white pattern. Women can pair it with a velvet dress with lace cuffs or a fitted jacket with gold-coloured buttons that match the trim on the hat. For a musketeer look, complete the outfit with a cape, boots and a sword. These items must be ordered separately.
