Department Store Henri Bendel
Not on view
The elegant shape of this day hat complements the sleek and flowing lines of 1930s fashion. Created from high-quality straw, the sheer crown is an uncommon touch that adds an air of distinction. Henri Bendel founded his eponymous store in New York City in 1895.
