A WORD ABOUT HATBOXES


          Hatboxes… just the word conjures up images of an elegant lady at the train station… or a dressing room with many lovely hatboxes storing wonderful millinery confections.  But a hatbox is more than just a charming travel case or decorative item; it is a truly effective means of protecting your hat when you are not wearing it.

Many of us have heard dreadful tales of a well loved hat which was inadvertently sat upon and crushed beyond repair.  A hat left sitting out near a window with strong sunlight can become faded, and of course, dust may cause deterioration.

            While it was de rigueur in times past for fine stores to provide a hatbox with each hat, this custom has become quite rare.

            Cynthia's Centuries of Style, however, strongly believes in the value, purpose and beauty of hatboxes.  Cynthia's Centuries of Style provides a hatbox with each hat to protect your investment in fine millinery. 

            Moreover, a woman carrying a hatbox is undeniably chic.

            So, remember to store your hat in a hatbox when at home and take it with you when you travel.  Your well-cared for hat will provide you with many years of pleasure.
