30s Bridal Headpiece - Velvet Leaf Juliet Cap & Orange Blossom Halo Crown

This is a beautiful archival piece of antique/vintage millinery that is perfect for a wedding or bridal occasion. It is a juliet cap/halo hybrid that has a rigid, sculptural crown structure designed to sit far back on the head/frame the crown and would often secure a veil. This silhouette was very popular in the 1930s to pair with liquid satin/bias cut silk gowns. The ear tabs/wing shaped side panels are meant to hug the sides of the head or sit above the ears, which was also a classic design element of 30s millinery. Beautifully layered velvet leaves/petals that is meant to look like stylized wings/feathers or wreath like foliage. Mixed with delicate floral orange blossoms trimming the top. In amazing structural condition - please see photos for references. Based on the materials and design aesthetic I believe this is from the 1930s, but this structural shape was also very popular in the 50s so it could be as late as the 50s. Please reference the photos and make your best judgment. whimsical, avant garde, tiara, cocktail shrug hat, mid century, horsehair mesh, skull cap, fascinator, juliet, flower child, romantic, theater, costume, buckram, pre-war, elegant, formal, half hat, crescent, half-crown, calot, delicate, old-world, old hollywood, jane bourvis
