Homburg - $ 100
The Homburg gained fame in the late 1870's when the popular Edward VII returned to England from the German resort of Homburg sporting this new style.
Trilby - $ 100
George du Maurier's popular novel Trilby was dramatized in 1895. This style takes its name from the play, and the dramatic sweep of the Trilby hat adds savoie faire to any gentlemen's appearence. Though essentially a brother to the Homburg, the felt of the Trilby is a softer version. Although both hats originally had only a center crease, we have placed side creases on the crown of the Trilby to demonstrate how either one can be shaped.
