Vintage Parasisal Capeline Hat Body - 12-13"
Vintage parasisals are renowned for being super fine and truly a crème de la crème millinery material. These vintage capelines are so incredible fine, much more so when compared to some of todays equivalents. These capelines would have been hand woven, making them even more special.
When laid flat (in half), these capelines measure approximately 12-13 inches from crown to brim.
With anything vintage, expect there to be a small amount of fraying on the edges but they should otherwise be in good nick.
Lighter colours may have evidence of foxing around the outer edges from storage. Most colours have been pre-stiffened for ease of blocking.

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.
