Vintage Tall Turban Details
Step aside, subtle. This 1950s Modern Miss showstopper towers tall in all the right ways. Crafted from cream satin ribbon straw, the hat features tiered layers of novelty braid—a fabulous ruffled weave with shine, texture, and plenty of personality. The V-pointed front flatters the face, while pleated satin trim and a dainty bow add a ladylike finish. Think of it as the vintage version of a mic drop.

WHAT IS A BUBBLE TOQUE
About Bubble Toques
A bubble toque is a structured, rounded hat that sits high on the head, often made of straw or fabric. Popular in the late 1950s and early 1960s, it creates a sculptural, helmet-like silhouette that frames the face and adds instant drama.
HOW TO MEASURE YOUR HAT SIZE
HOW TO FIND YOUR HAT SIZE
- Pull a fabric tape measure or length of string around your head just slightly above the ear, across the mid-forehead, completely circling your head.
- Hold the tape firmly, but not too tightly. You are measuring your head exactly where the hat will sit in either inches or centimeters.
- If your measurement falls between sizes, choose the next largest size.
- Then buy a fabulous vintage hat from Madge
