Another Black Hat with Badge

This is a different hat with a different badge to one posted in March, although very similar 

So it seems when I took these photos that I was in a mood to pull funny faces.

A kind of muffin cap but the crown is not quite baggy enough

Gold Hood

I'm not at all sure where this hood came from, will probably never know.

I think it was probably part of another garment, the buttons possibly connecting it to the garment's collar.

I added a chain so it could be worn independently of its origin.

 

Leather Wide Brimmed Hat

A soft leather wide-brimmed hat. 

Too tall to be a boater and not quite a top hat in falls between to two.

There is no stiffening or hardening of the leather, this adds to the comfort and softens the shape..

Purple Bonnet

A decorated purple beret or bonnet 

This cap is made of a bright purple velvet-like fabric

Decorated with a feather, beads and binding.

The cap would fit what is called the renaissance period

An elasticated headband makes it one size fits all (unless youre an alien)

Leather Goblin Hat

 

A leather skull cap with a tail

This is an odd cap I spotted at a market, it's made of leather with a long section at the rear reminiscent of a nightcap in some ways.

The crude look of the stitching makes me think of something a goblin might wear in a fantasy image.

Another possibility might be a librarians cap or perhaps somewhere to took your long hair

I'm please with this find and hope to find a character or multiple characters to wear it. 

Diving Helm

A steam punk based diving helm.

This helmet is homemade, constructed from high-density foam and a clear plastic dome.

The construction involved lots of contact adhesive but was relatively simple in shape and form, preformed foam hexagons help decorate the construction

 

The final result was then painted with flexithane paint mixed with brass powder pigment.

I finally added a couple of pieces of flexible plastic conduit sprayed with brass paint to provide the helmet's mock air supply.

Galactic Empire Cap

This hat is a novelty representation of an officer's cap in the Star Wars universe. 

The rank of First Order in the Galactic Empire 

The hat was originally purchased to be given away as a gift to a star wars fan, but unfortunately was not of good enough quality, so ended up in my junk hat pile.

Made of poor quality fabric over the foam to provide the shape, glued rather than stitched in places and complete with a badge that spikes through the foam into the forehead, making it almost impossible to wear. Avoid if you see it my recomendation. 

Also, it looks grey in the advert, what came is black. 

Better cosplay star wars hats are available although may cost a bit more would be worth it.

Lightweight Hood

 This hood and mantle is made of a lightweight fabric and very lightweight.

Good summer costume

Ideal fantasy costume, with a simple single button to hold it together at the front.
