Made from a simple woven visca braid, this capeline has a slight shine to it and a ginormous brim! Visca is quite floppy by nature, so for a more structured look simply add in wire at the crown and brim edge. With a subtle shine, this capeline blocks beautifully with steam and is more weather resistant than other straws. Perfect for unpredictable English weather!
Capeline Measures:
Flat measurement from crown tip to brim: 33cm (13 inches)
Brim width from side crown to brim edge: 16cm (6.2 inches)
*Please note that this is not a finished hat but the 'body' to make one from scratch.*

Petershams Guide to hat bodies:
Cone: This is the perfect size for most fascinators and for blocking out hat crowns.
Flares: This is the size in between a cone and a capeline, so good for hats with smaller brims or larger fascinators.
Capelines: This is the largest hat body, great for wide brimmed hats.
