Lattice Weave Sinamay Capeline Fascinator Hat Base
This lattice weave hat form straddles on the line of a capeline and hat base. You could simply trim it up and use it as is, or even try blocking and shaping it further to create a more bespoke piece. The world is your oyster!
Capeline features a bias trimmed edge with a band around the crown and on the inside.
We obtained a few of these beauties from a long-time hat manufacturer in England. These examples date to the 1980s-90's and we are so happy to share them with you!
Capeline measures:
Flat measurement from crown tip to brim: 28cm (11 inches)
Brim width from side crown to brim edge: 11.5cm (4.5 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 fitted hats.
