Charming and Feminine (5/5) Oct 23, 2012 Klind65 New York NY US
  I bought this item because I wear the styles of the 1930's and '40's. This is very like the small hats ladies favored then. Oddly, when I tried it on the way it was desgined to be worn, it didn't become me much. So I turned it around and much to my surprise, it complimented my face shape much better worn backwards with the flower in the rear!

Another problem I had was that the hairband began to ache after several hours. So, I detached it (easy to do) and installed a hat elastic (elastic band with metal prongs at each end) into the grosgrain sweatband on the inside perimeter of the hat. Now it works fine! Looks very pretty with my shoulder-length hair down or up.

In my experience, headbands ALWAYS ache. I wish the manufacturers of fascinators and such would not use them and use combs or elastic bands instead.
