For adults who want a complete steampunk headpiece in one go, the steampunk hat with goggles is a top hat with gold sequins and goggles fixed to the brim. You can wear it to a themed party, costume party, gothic evening or carnival, and it is suitable for both women and men.
How are the goggles attached to this hat?
The goggles are attached around the crown of the hat with a black elastic band with a buckle, so you do not need to put it on separately. In addition, you will see this:
- The crown is covered with reversible sequins in gold and black, so the pattern changes when you stroke it.
- Along the edge of the crown and across the entire hat brim are rows of small gold spikes.
- The goggles have two round gold cups with faceted lenses that shine blue, green and orange, with pointed spikes on the sides.
- The hat measures 32 x 28 x 15 cm and is black on the underside and the brim.
- Care is simple: do not wash, do not bleach, do not iron, do not dry clean and do not tumble dry.
The machine aesthetic behind this headpiece
This style combines the Victorian silhouette of a top hat with the imagery of steam engines: gears, copper-colored metal parts and aviator goggles on your forehead. Those goggles are the hallmark of the genre, because they refer to inventors and machinists who protected their eyes. Because sequins and spikes have been added here, the whole thing leans more towards the festive, shiny side of the theme than towards the sober leather version.
Wearing the hat at a party or parade
At a busy party, the hat works best if you leave the goggles on the brim and wear it slightly towards the back, so that the goggles remain visible at the front. If you want to keep your hands free in a parade, hold the hat slightly deeper on your head. In terms of clothing, it matches a striped vest in brown and black, a black blouse, fingerless gloves and studded belts.
If you are looking for a gold steampunk hat with goggles for your next themed party, this headpiece will give you the complete look. Customer rating 8.7 and 14-day returns.
