Go Big or Go Home: Trimming an 18th Century Hat

When it comes to 18th century dress, less is not more. No one would accuse wealthy 18th century women of minimalism. I liken the era's fashion to that of the 1980s.

Making an 18th Century Bergere and Cap

It’s always exciting to get to the stage in the costume making where I get to make a coordinating hat. And this project was no exception. I decided on a Bergere, which is French for Shepherdess, because, well, Bo Peep! I jest. But really, I do love the whole 18th century shepherdess look.

The style is also the base hat for two hats in the American Duchess guide to 18th…

Here’s a quick and easy tutorial to turn a modern straw hat into a mid-late 18th century bergere style hat. It’s not, of course, historically accurate, but it’s quick, easy, and looks effective. We’ll go from this: To this: You’ll need: – A broad brimmed, woven straw hat. It doesn’t matter if it fits you, but it has to be woven (not braided and sewn together), and it has to be straw. – Scissors – Hot water – A round metal pan or bowl with a flat base approximately 6 inches/ 15 centimeters…
