These hats apparently come in two configurations. The early hat with the tag on the top and the late hat with the tag on the rim. The earlier hat, this one, The one with the scalopy rim? These are the good ones. They are darker thicker cloth. There are 2 wires inside to hold it up. However, any of these hats by Elope? They are much too soft and floppy to actually work well. I built a hat form from a piece of plywood, a piece of firewood and single screw. Basically just a post. This lets you properly drape the hat the way you want it. Mix some sizing. Wood glue and water. 3 spoons of glue in a 1/2 pint of water, more or less. Stir it up well. Put it in an empty spray bottle. Take the hat outside. Fold move and otherwise prop it up where you want it. Soak it with sizing. Pay particular attention to the place where the rim meets the crown, but basically soak it all. When it dries completely, you will see. The hat will stand up and be secure for you. The later made hats with the round rim can still be styled and sized. In fact they have to be pretty heavily sized since they have less support inside. I sewed a piece of ribbon to the granddaughters. She doesn't know it yet, Its for Christmas. yours ScottRead full review

First the wire in the rim was broken, and made it through the fabric. So I taped the wire and fixed the hole. There is one wire in the top to make it stand up, but it won't hold. So I opened the whole inside, took the wire out and put some bubble wrap inside. Now it is holding up. The Face is not really noticeable so I changed that, too. The quality of the fabric is just OK, specially the rim tears very easy.

I bought this item to compliment my Harry Potter Halloween display. I am very pleased with it's construction, design,and detailed look. I will be suspending mine in mid-air, utilizing magicians string to create a floating effect. The wire rim will really make it easier to accomplish this effect without unnecessary bunching. ....Perfect for my needs !!!

This hat is made from what seems like microfiber-like cloth. It is comfortable and light-weight. It comes with straps if you want to keep it on that way. This hat will fit an adults head. It has a Velcro strap so you can adjust it to fit a child's head. Good for all ages. It has a wide brim and a tall cone so I will have to fix it so it is not so tall, but that is strictly my preference. I am also going to add some brown spiders and roses to make it my own. It is a good base and I like that it is a different color than black. I plan on being a "brown" witch next year and this fit the bill perfectly.

Excellent Harry Potter item. I purchased this for my best friend who, like me, is a huge Harry Potter fan. She will LOVE this. I like it so much I am getting myself one. Highly recommended for any fan. Soft, has straps, and is almost leather-suede like. Thin and beautiful. Larger than I expected!!!
