Cloche Call

I am on the search for the perfect cloche.  The cloche hat is a fitted, bell-shaped hat that was popular during the 1920s.  Back in the day different styles of ribbons attached to the hats indicated different messages about the wearer. Several popular messages included: An arrow-like ribbon which indicated a girl was single but had already given her heart to someone, a firm knot which signaled marriage or a flashy bow which indicated the wearer was single and interested in mingling.  Here are a few that really caught my eye...
