Hats - 'cloche' (clō sh)



I designed the 'cloche' as a hat for cancer patients who have lost hair due to chemo treatments.    This neat little cloche looks similar to a turban, but pulls on like a cap - no struggles for weak hands.

They look great - and they're washable!.

To my great surprise even healthy women are buying them - from teenagers to grandmothers - to make a fashion statement or save them from a bad hair day.

The 'soft cloche' (clō sh) is available in many different colours and fabrics (prints and plains).   Varied fabrics make them suitable for all occasions — from home to hospital, to casual and dressy.  Some are made with fabrics with glitter and pizzazz which make them great for evening wear.

Only a few are pictured here.    If you're looking for something in particular, give me a call.   I'm sure I'll have something for you.

The cloche just pulls on.  No frustration, comfortable and a nice profile.  One size fits all. Woven fabrics adjust with elastic while the knits stretch to fit all sizes.

Easy to wear.  Pull the Cloche (clō sh) over your head and gently arrange the fabric into soft folds to give you the silhouette that suits you best. 

The bow can be easily removed and replaced with a brooch.  Or a scarf can be wrapped around the band for a really neat look.

Give me a call and we can talk about what is available (506-529-8837).  Special orders are available on request.
