I didn’t realize that the Milans from Art could be had in different colors. I thought they were all the wheat color.
Neither did I. I was looking all over for a navy straw, but it was only after wasting money on a Tesi Sisal that looks terrible on me due to the taper that I thought of Art and said to myself,"Can't hurt to ask."

This arrived today. 'Bout Midnight with a 2 7/8" brim and 1 1/2" light steel ribbon with an accent. The color, which is cabernet, does not photograph well on my kitchen counter. I will be wearing it this Sunday and will get some pictures in natural light. I thought this would make a good Valentine & Christmas hat. While I still think that is true I can tell it will be a "night out on the town" hat. This fedora has attitude! Love it. :cool:

Bill that is a gorgeous hat!
I’m always impressed by the color palettes you commission and the ribbon contrasts.
The ribbon on this one really brings it together.
I look forward to seeing it in natural light.

I wore it to church services this morning. This very well may be the most complimented hat I’ve ever worn. It’s neck in neck with my “Dress Blues” but I really think it may have taken the lead. After all this is only the first head time its had. The tall crown, deep diamond crease, and wider brim make the proportions perfect in my mind. The light steel ribbon....it just pops. Every hat I commission from @Art Fawcett seems to leave me more in awe of his talent!
