This the sequined covered cap, came as part of the same hat haul as the previous post.
This was the leisure cap of some flamboyant magician I'm sure.
Now, what's the difference between this what I call a Smoking cap (Leisure cap) and a Kufi hat, both are colourful pillbox hats of a similar size and shape.
Smoking caps are European, the colour comes from the decoration, embroidery, sequins, tassels applied usually to a rich velvety fabric.
Kufi caps are African, the colour comes from the highly patterned base fabric rather than a plain decorated base fabric
and that's the difference in its most basic form, although there are many exceptions to the rule and ones that could fall into both categories
