Bobbie in yellow

Bobbie mod cap fashion hat blog post banner 2025. In yellow and white.

Summer is winding down and Fall is on its way. We are not quite ready to let go of Summer. How about you?

Today Hattingdon is wearing a cheerful mod cap in a gorgeous yellow with swirls and polka dots in white. This should keep us in a sunny mood.

Vivian named the design Bobbie. We love this hat. Sigh.

How about some poetry? A.E. Housman’s poem reflects on the passing of summer and the introspection it often brings.

When Summer’s End is Nighing

by A.E. Housman

When summer’s end is nighing
And skies at evening cloud,
I muse on change and fortune
And all the feats I vowed
When I was young and proud.

Houseman is regarded as one of the foremost classicists of his age, and one of the greatest classical scholars of his time. Learn more »

Bobbie

Vivian created this mod cap silhouette in early January 2022, just a little over a year ago. She named the design Bobbie. Predictably, she made them in an array of colors. Let’s take a look.

We absolutely adore these caps. Fabulous. By the way, Vivian has not used that shade of blue before (here’s the hex code #5f5fff in case you want to use it too).

In the meantime — is it just us, or do you feel a poster coming on? Hahahaha!

Thank you for spending time here with us. See you again soon.

With love, Hattingdon & Co.

Vivian’s Fave Hats: Letter P

Hello there. Our journey through the alphabet continues. Welcome to the Letter “P”.

Vivian has selected two vintage hats this time around. Let’s go!

Classic Hat

Our first offering is a smart black and tan hat created in Hattingdon’s distinctive classic silhouette. Vivian named the design Paige.

The Paige hat features alternating stripes of black and tan and white, that partially extends to the crown, which is adorned with a coordinating button.

A very smart look. She can go just about anywhere in this hat.

Fashion Hat

This is one of Vivian’s earliest designs and an all-time favourite of hers and Hattingdon followers — a colorful mod cap she named Peggy.

The hat is made up of sections of lime green, bright orange and raspberry pink, patterned with white floral inspired shapes and rings. It has a lime green brim and capped off with a bright orange button.

Vivian adds, “I so love the shape of the hat, the design and the colorful decoration. It is bright and fun and cheery, and makes me feel happy. I had the Peggy design on a tote bag for many years, and it was absolutely amazing the attention it got.”
