Store on a hat stand or stuffed with tissue paper to maintain dome shape. Keep away from heat sources. If brim becomes misshapen, steam gently and reshape while warm. Imported.

Styling Q&A

Q: How long does shipping take?

A: This item qualifies for standard delivery and typically arrives in 7-12 business days within the USA.

Q: Will this hat fit my head? I usually have trouble with one-size hats.

A: This bowler is designed to fit most adult head sizes, approximately 21-23 inches in circumference (53-58 cm). The free size design accommodates a range of head sizes comfortably. If you've had issues with hats being too tight or too loose in the past, the medium depth and dome structure of this bowler typically works better than very shallow or very deep styles. If you're still uncertain, contact our customer service with your head circumference measurement for personalized guidance.

Q: Which color is most versatile?

A: Black is the most universally versatile, coordinating with virtually any outfit and working for both casual and professional settings. Camel offers neutral warmth perfect for autumn styling and pairs beautifully with earth tones. Khaki is similar to camel but slightly cooler-toned. Red makes a bold statement for those who love color, while white creates fresh, crisp looks but requires more careful maintenance to keep clean.

Q: Can I wear this in the rain?

A: Light drizzle is generally fine—polyester resists moisture better than actual wool. However, we don't recommend wearing in heavy rain as prolonged water exposure can affect the structured shape and may cause water spots. If caught in light rain, blot gently with a towel and allow to air dry naturally, reshaping if needed. The polyester construction makes this more weather-resistant than traditional wool felt bowlers.

Q: Does the bow look too costume-y or childish for adult wear?

A: Not at all! The curling bow is designed as a subtle, elegant accent rather than a large statement bow. It adds vintage charm and feminine detail without overwhelming the classic bowler silhouette. Think Audrey Hepburn or classic French style—refined and sophisticated. The bow's size and placement are specifically proportioned for adult elegance. Many customers appreciate how it adds personality without sacrificing sophistication.
