A black hat with the silhouette everyone recognises at once: a rounded crown and a wide brim that turns up on both sides. White trim runs along the whole edge of the brim, and a white twisted cord sits around the crown.
The hat is what finishes a costume off. With a cape, a black eye mask and a sword the character is there in seconds. On its own it works just as well in a horse-rider outfit, a Spanish theme or a hero a child has made up.
This is the small size in the range. Nothing else is included: a cape, mask or sword are bought separately.
A good piece for the dressing-up box, and the kind of accessory that keeps turning up for years after carnival, at birthdays and on free Wednesday afternoons.
