Can you do that, modify a noun by mixing modifiers?

Say, something like this:

> 昨日買ったきれいな白い夫子の **帽子**

  1. 昨日買った
  2. きれいな
  3. しろい
  4. 夫子の

each is modifying 帽子.

answer
I think you can do it but it can get tricky when chaining multiple modifiers.
There’s a famous [garden-path sentence](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Garden-
path_sentence) demonstrating this ambiguity in Japanese:

> 頭が赤い魚を食べた猫

It can be parsed in at least five different ways depending on which word or
clause modifies what. [![enter image description
