Men in Hats -- Trilby Edition

To the right we have a small photograph of Frank Sinatra wearing a trilby hat. The trilby was a hat identified with Sinatra, as well as Rex Harrison, as well as the stereotypical New York executive in the 1950s and 1960s.
The hat was named after a character in the novel Trilby by Georges DuMaurier, from which also came the character and concept of Svengali. Trilby, in the novel, was a woman and she was known for wearing the style of hat that was basically a modified Peter Pan hat with a creased and dimpled brim.
Nowadays, among hipsters and the hat ignorant the style is known as the skinny brim or skimpy brim hat, which is an insult to the history of the hat.
This writer has never been a big fan of the trilby since is a bastard child between a cap and a proper hat. But it's better than nothing.
