Wore it for a church function, it was perfect! There is a band on the inside that allows you to tuck your hair around, so its not just delicately perched on your head. For quite true to size, so I wasn't worried about it flying off. feathers were fun and didn't shed. a nice big hat without being insanely massive and heavy, brim stayed up perfectly too. This will probably also double as a derby hat, couldn't be more pleased with the price and quality of this!
