Talk about a high crown!
Looks like a custom Irish tweed.
I can just see the rush to Art to custom this one.

You have to wonder if people wear things like that just to be different, or because they really like them.

Nancy was right, just say NO!

I think tweed fedoras or trilbies were meant to be low-crowned, for a reason. High crowns only really work with fur felt fedoras, homburgs, bowlers, western/cowboy, or top hats.

I don't have any problems with the height, but I think the bash and the way it caves on the sides looks pretty dumb. I don't really like the tweed/wool hats anyway. On the plus side, maybe it'll give someone an idea for a new look that does work. Who knows...

Well, it is Boy George; an awfully flamboyant chap. he has a number of hats that seem to be made and creased in that way. I like his various looks, especially his velvet hats.

Oww, my eyes!

I dont really know how BG's hat is made, but it reminds me of one of those spring loaded hats made of a relatively thin material and held in place with wire.

Looks like a Dr. Seuss character.

I used to dress not like a man
I used to do it! I still can!
Now I am a man each day
But in a twisted surreal way!

<apologizes to Dr. Seuss>
