Fedora Est.1910



I don't know if it was looking thru thousands of eBay pages and seeing them with almost every outfit or if it was the recollection of summer but I'm hooked. I tried to find a date, because fashion is and was history. The early 1900’s is the furthest date back in time i could fine. It was most likely started with Sarah Bernhardt, a French actress who in a play in 1882 started wearing a hat that was similar to a fedora. The hat at the specific time didn't have a name, but Sarah's characters name was Princes Fedora & the rest is history.

Fedora started to lose its appeal in 1960's because cars became more compact and it became a hassle to wear them. But today are worn but nearly everyone. Stars like Ashlee Simpson and more famously Megan fox have been spotted wearing the trend. There versatile, wear them with jeans or dresses, shorts or skirts and my personal favorite- Romper. This is truly a simple but classic look that works well for anyone!!
