💠 The essentials in three secrets

  • Era: France, 18th century – the Age of Enlightenment

  • Elements: small feminine tricorne, to be pinned
  • Finishings: black felt, silver braid, white ostrich plumes, half-cockade in black and silver
    Unique piece – available immediately

✨ The hat that flirts with scandal
An absolute icon of the 18th century, the tricorne here becomes an accomplice to feminine coquetry. Lighter and more mischievous than its military counterpart, it perches atop a wig or chignon — worn straight for the impeccable air of a marquise… or tilted, in boudoir-conspiratorial fashion.

Made of canvas base covered in black felt, it is adorned with silver braid and a fringe of white ostrich plumes, as finely frayed as a burst of laughter. On the right side, a black-and-silver half-cockade pretends not to notice it draws every gaze.

🧵 Technical details

  • Black felt on a canvas base
  • Delivered with two hatpins: one with a pearl head, the other with a silver metal head (length: 8 cm)
  • A single pin is enough to secure the tricorne

🎭 Who is this tricorne for?
For you, Comtesse, if:

  • You know a hat can be a declaration of intent
  • You like to tilt your head to intrigue all the more
  • You believe a well-placed feather is worth a thousand speeches
