Just love love love these hats! I photographed them last time I was in Istanbul. I've tried them on. I've tried to find a reason to buy one. But the reality is, I don't have a hat head ... and what's the point of a hat if you can't wear it ... Fabulous as it is (the hat I mean, not the head).
I think someone creative decided to do a modern variation on the Fez and this is what they came up with. The hats are fun and quirky and beautifully made ... perhaps I'll buy one next time. ;o)
This is the photo I took two years ago in the same shop
