<p>Hello everyone,</p>

<p>i am a student from Germany and study fashion design. For one of my current courses, i want to create a look including a felt hat, inspired by the illustration u can see below. The small Problem is i have none and my Professor only limited Knowledge of hatmaking, luckily my University has quite a lot of equipment for it.</p>
<p>Now to the question or rather problem, how do i get a really huge and oversized felt brim stiff enough ?</p>
<p>Would be a normal stiffner like shellack or something simmiliar enough that it wont "flop" down? I as well had the idea to include, maybe small hidden wooden or metal rods in the brim is that an option or another idea to hold the brim up ? Or should i maybe choose an entirely differnent material, since felt can be quite heavy ? I really have no idea what i can do so any tipp is welcome :)</p>
<p>Thank you very much for any answers or tipps i really look Forward hearing from even just one of u.</p>
<p></p>
<p>Sincerly your overwhelmed </p>
