remember, as well, the cravat.
It too is passe
in the world of today.
It went the way of the spat.

Headwear to show off to their world.
The wearer could be a big bore,
But as long as a hat was squirrelled
Upon the head fashionably,
Whoever would surely stand out.
But today anonymity
And casual are more about
The headwear styles that now are worn.
The once in hats share their outcomes.
Old fashioned hat styles now adorn
Mannequin heads in museums

From the low class to the high bred,
The baseball cap now rules the head.
