Description
This postcard depicts several fashionable hats.
The main illustration, on the left, is within a large circle delimited by a blue ribbon. Inside, can be seen a woman wearing a green and pink dress with a high purple hat, decorated with pink feathers. She is looking in the mirror of her dressing-table. 
On the right side, eleven small heads are wearing hats of different forms and colours; most of them are either narrow and high or lower but wide-brimmed. Each hat is adorned by ribbons, flowers or feathers of a matching or contrasting colour.
