Melusine hat bodies are known for their rich, lush long rabbit fur pile. These vintage examples also come in the most unique colourways, too! Dating to the 1940s-60s, they are very special and would make for a fabulous one of a kind hat. All are in excellent vintage condition.

Petershams Guide to hat bodies:
Cone: This is the perfect size for most fascinators and for blocking out hat crowns.
Flares: This is the size inbetween a cone and a capeline, so good for hats with smaller brims or larger fascinators.
Capelines: This is the largest hat body, great for wide brimmed hats.
