Hat
The Schute (Biedermeier hat, Kiepenhut, Kapotte) is a sewn hat-like hood , which developed around 1800 from the older rococo hood and was worn in fashionable modifications until the middle of the 19th century.
description
The barge consisted of a high head (for the usual bun ) with Stiffen, front wide, down the neck usually narrower expectant brim that framed the face. Its broad ribbons were tied in a bow under the chin. The barge was made of woven straw or fabric, depending on the need for use and the time of year. The fabrics were stretched over a wire frame underneath. They were decorated with a wide variety of materials such as tulle, gauze, flowers, feathers, fruits and large ribbons. Specimens for the winter were padded or padded.
With the topknot slipping from the head to the nape of the neck, the hood flattened out over time, and the brim also shrank. In the late 1840s, round brimmed hats became fashionable. The 1853 rise of hat pins made the big tie bands unnecessary. Around 1856 the barges gave way to a round hat , which initially had a large brim, due to the change in hairstyle fashion . In the end, the back of the hat consisted only of a piece of cloth pulled together with a string. Around 1860 the boot finally went out of fashion.
