1980s Marida England Blush Sculptural Occasion Hat

There are hats that complete an outfit — and others that transform it.

This beautiful English occasion millenery  falls firmly into the latter.
With the original Marida label presents inside, this beautifully constructed hat,  combines a sweeping statement brim with softly draped detailing and sculptural fabric flowers. Its lustrous blush fabric, and wonderfully sculptural flowers create an exceptionally feminine silhouette, while the colour shifts subtly between champagne, blush and soft oyster as it catches the light.

Let the hat lead the outfit. Pair it with an ivory, champagne or softly tailored blush dress for beautifully tonal elegance, or create contrast with navy, chocolate brown or deep burgundy.
Its subtle colour shifts with the light, allowing it to complement an unusually broad palette. Keep jewellery refined and the neckline relatively simple — this is a hat designed to make the entrance.

Elegant without being predictable, it is a glorious choice for a wedding, garden party, Goodwood Revival or simply an occasion deserving something truly memorable.
