Dictionary

Pork Pie is a men’s hat, the hallmark of which is a cylindrical or flat round crown. Often the crown is decorated with a ribbon of a different color. There is a small indentation in the upper part, visually similar to the dish with the same name — a classic British pork pie.

The material used for this hat can be either felt or straw. The peak of popularity of this hat came at the end of the XIX century. At one time it was considered an essential attribute of the male urban style of England.
