THE PORK PIE HAT


The pork pie has been in existence since the 19th century.its shape is like a fedora but with a flattened top and a short crown.it was named after the pork pie because of its striking resemblance.


It was used to describe a stereotype for a British man-about-town style for many years.jazz artists in the
40's and 50's were such  huge fans of this hat they made it a statement piece.it was later worn in the 90's by actors.


With artiste going for the retro look,this fashion statement piece got a whole lot popular.due to its popularity among the male folks,it is usually made with diamond crowns, center derts and tear drop crown.this piece is especially good because it is also rocked by females.
