Grey Cotton Twill Bonnet with Silver Net

1950s · 1990s · American

A fitted bonnet featuring a pale pink cotton twill crown adorned with elaborate ruffled fabric flowers or rosettes. The construction shows careful gathering and layering of the pink fabric to create dimensional floral elements across the front and sides. A fine silver metallic hexagonal mesh net veil extends from the bonnet, creating a partial face covering typical of formal millinery. The bonnet appears to have a structured foundation with the decorative elements applied on top. The combination of soft pink fabric flowers with the geometric silver netting creates a contrast between organic and industrial textures, reflecting late 20th century formal hat-making techniques.
