I still use Brylcreem. But I sure don't use Fopp!

A little weekend project I was working on. The crease on the hat Alan Cumming wears on the second season of The Traitors for the Traitor Tower “murder scenes” caught my eye and I wanted to see if I could recreate it. More on how I shaped it up in the what is Your Favorite Hat Crease thread. https://www.thefedoralounge.com/threads/what-is-your-favorite-hat-crease.56660/page-101#post-3081387

Good morning. My morning walkabout was under the brim of a VS thin ribbon fedora. This sage beaver felt hat was inspired by the Stetson Stratoliner.

Cheers, Eric -

Thanks David. On my android phone if I hold down the photo trigger button it will take several shots in succession. There is then an option to make sequence. Which saves as a GIF. Probably a similar function on iPhone.

It seemed like the only way I could capture the essence of the look on head with the crease off to the side like that For some reason.

Amazing and perfect for the occasion.

Disney Hats - Milan Straw Stingy
4 7/8 Crown as shaped
Two Tone Green Grey/Black Straw
2 inch matching two tone ribbon
1 1/8 brim with bound edge
Wishbone Star Pin

Another tip off by @BobHufford .. that I managed to miss the auction on… but was lucky to find it relisted for $5 less with a Buy It Now. This Disney Hats New York Milan straw stingy is officially my shortest brim hat at a mere 1 1/8 inch. I love the two tone design for the straw and especially the ribbon. The neato pin on its bow keep has seemed to grab the most attention with varying ideas on its origins or meanings. I do very much like @RBH Rusty’s suggestion of Wish Upon a Star referencing the Unrelated but still distinctive Disney Hats name. What a looker and easy wearing grab and go hat. Thanks again to Bob for the heads up…. He is right… this one will fit in perfectly for StinJuly half way to StingyMas celebration (or Stingypendance Day as Randy @Rmccamey suggested)

Glad you got a bit of sunshine as well. Steve. Cool colour on that Barbisio.

Thanks Stefan. I should wear it more often, especially in the early spring when the sky is blue, but the temperature's not so high.

 

[Rogue Scholar]

On today’s hike sporting an Akubra Avalon with some modifications: lowered the crown, shortened the brim by 3/8” and stiffened it with shellac to give it some shape (comes with a rollable and hence floppy brim)

 

[Steve1857]

Great lookin Borsa and photo of it, friend!

Thanks Randall. I ought to wear this Barbisio more often.

Fantastic Stetson Vogue of yours. Congrats on a great find, my friend.

Thanks Randall. I ought to wear this Barbisio more often.

Oops.

Thanks, bro.

Hückel Weilheim "Chevreau" possibly later 1950s. This Soft Felt is in NOS condition and overall fantastic. I believe the feather came with the hat from the factory. I found this Soft Felt back in 2018 and the last time I posted it here was back in 2020.

August Hückel House, Wien (Vienna) I., Concordiaplatz 3., Architects Clauss & Gross of Vienna (1886).
August Hückel was one of the original owners of J. Hückel ´s Söhne Neutitschein, Austria (after WWI Nový Jičín, Czechoslovakia). He had this house (building) built in Vienna in 1881. I found this print back 2017 and had it framed.

What it looks like now.

August Hückel (* 1838 - † 1917) was a senior engineer and was involved in the construction of another magnificent building in Vienna. On the corner of the Salzgries and Heinrichsgasse streets in the historic center of Vienna, the construction of a five-story corner house started by architects Heinrich Claus (1835 - † 1892) and Josef Gross (* 1828 - † 1891) in August 1881 in cooperation with Auguste Hückel . In May 1882, the construction company of Anton Wasserburger completed a monumental building in a neo-historical style designed to serve as a business and residential house by Augusta Hückel. His architecture, in some details, recalls the construction of Hückel's villas, and it is quite possible that August Hückel had a share in designing them. The Vienna House became the home of several business firms such as M. Popper & Co., Kann & Weiss and others. The investment of funds has certainly paid off. However, the construction lost much significance after the First World War, when Austro-Hungarian Empire collapsed. New frontiers broke and disrupted economic and communication ties with the center of gravity of Central European trade. However, the house of August Hückel still stands in Vienna and Schweizer Pension is here.

Absolutely gorgeous hat. And the color suits you extremely well.

Great the building is still there. And beautiful hat!
