Back in yesterday, girls wanted to look dressed "fit to kill" on Sunday. A pretty dress, the proper shoes or boots, and to top it all off........a very nice hat.
Most of the hats back then were made of straw accented with ribbons, lace, and/or artificial (sometimes real) flowers. There was a type of "one-upmanship" contest when it came to Sunday dressing........but the hat had to be fabulous. If it was windy, a scarf or other type of tying device was used to hold the hat on a womans head. After all, you couldn't let the wind mess up your nice hair do!
Yep, hats were the thing and the more you had the better.
