Cartwheel Hat was first popular in
1940s

 Large Victorian picture hats reappeared in the mid ’40s and went by the name Cartwheel hat. Usually they were straw summer hats with over sized stiff brims that were practical and fashionable. The width balanced out the new slimmer silhouette of the late’ 40s. The 1940s version lacked much decoration (maybe a long ribbon and bow tied around the crown). The 1950s version featured a plethora of feathers, flowers and jewels.
