Verenna and Viola

These two are a slightly more goth-y take on the top hat, with black, silver, purple, velvet... all the stuff you generally associate with the goth aesthetic. Not as overtly "dark" as the Twilight hats, but they'd go well with a gothic lolita outfit or something similar.


Verenna:

Austerely beautiful, the Verenna has the sheen of antiqued silver combined with intricate black detail, creating a look that is darkly inviting. Black and silver brocade patterned with exotic paisley designs forms the background for a shield of swirling silver filigree, and frames an acrylic jewel as clear and cold as a winter sky. Twin ostrich plumes in lush black and cloudy gray rise above it all, set with twinkling rhinestones in black and white. The Verenna may be monochromatic, but what it lacks in color it makes up in style.

Viola:

Unlike Shakespeare's heroine, this Viola could never disguise herself as a boy-- from the purple dragons twining in sinuous grace over the brocade hatband, to the luscious black velvet ribbon encircling the base, to the sparkling amethyst-colored jewel centered on intricate vines of flowered brass filigree, she exercises her feminine wiles to the fullest. A fluffy black ostrich plume softens any remaining hard edges, while tiny rhinestones in shades of purple provide glittering accents to the whole.  When you put on the Viola, there's no way you'll avoid being noticed!
