top hat black velvet

The black velvet top hat is a cylindrical hat with a flat crown, a slightly curled brim and a shiny band around the crown. During Carnival, you can create a smart evening look with it, and at a magic show or a magician-themed party, it simply belongs. You can choose it as a lady or a gentleman, because the hat is for both women and men.

Why does the top hat belong to the magician?

The top hat belongs to the magician because stage magicians adopted men's formal evening wear, which included a tailcoat, a bow tie and a top hat. The rabbit that appears from the hat subsequently became the most famous image of the profession. That is why such a hat is also known as a magician's hat. A velvet version looks more matte and softer than a shiny satin hat, while the shiny band around the crown provides a subtle contrast.

Creating your evening look around the velvet hat

The velvet hat calls for an outfit in the same smart style. For men, a black jacket or tailcoat with a white shirt and a dark bow tie works well. With white gloves and a walking stick with a white handle, you will have a complete magician's look. Women can combine it with long loose hair, a dark blouse with gold-coloured brocade and a jabot, giving the hat a Victorian look. A white corsage on the lapel completes the evening wear. You will receive only the hat; the other clothing items and accessories are not included.
