Which Hat Brim Style/Size is Best for Me?

Some guidelines I use to help you choose the most flattering Hat for You:

A tall or larger lady can wear a lot of hat. A petite lady will find a smaller/lower crown hat more flattering. This refers to the overall size of the hat not just the inside diameter. I specialize in fitting ladies at either extreme of the scale: Extra small to XL head sizes and tall to petite women.

The Style hat that looks great on every Face Shape is the PICTURE HAT. It is just a matter of choosing the correct BRIM SIZE for you.
