Skipper tops it off
Today I am writing about Skipper's headwear. She competes with Barbie for the variety of hats that she owns. As with my other articles, I am showing you only some of what I have, so not every piece of head gear is listed.
Two Stetsons
Both Western and Horse Lovin' Skipper wore the same white Stetson (left), while the red cowgirl hat came with Create Western Designs Around the Rope Shapes. |
1994 #11604 Create Western Designs Around the Rope Shapes red vinyl Stetson
Berets are said to be "jaunty." Top row shows So Active #7983 and Class Act, and bottom row has Going to School and City Shopping. |
1976 #9121 Going to School red plaid cotton beret with black ribbon
1979 #2809 City Shopping mustard felt beret
1985 So Active #7983 red cotton knit beret
1989 #2629 Class Act red cotton knit beret with elastic tie
Four mob caps
These caps were popular for covering the hair in the 1700s. The Wikipedia entry says that poor women were seen wearing these when they were rioting, hence the term "mob."
1965 Pack Hats N Hats, pink cotton mob cap with white trim
1973 #7713 Super Dreamy for Sleepover Parties lime green cotton cap with white eyelet trim
1976 #9165 Bicentennial Fashion, Patriotic and Pretty white cotton cap with lace
1977 #9746 Lacey Charmer and Party Timer light blue cotton cap with lace and black ribbon trim
Four straw hats
1964 #1901 Red Sensation natural straw hat with orange ribbon
1990 Cool Tops #9080 white fabric straw hat with black houndstooth trim
1993 Peppermint Rose original vinyl purple straw hat
1993 American Greetings Peppermint Rose straw hat that came on a greeting card (and looks better on Rose than her original one)
I'd have sold my soul as a little girl to have one of these winter hats: Dressed in Velvet, All Over Felt, Winter Day and Wooly Winner |
Four winter hats
1970 #1745 Wooly Winner red wool cap with blue vinyl trim
1971 #3476 All Over Felt large light blue felt cap
1971 #3477 Dressed in Velvet pink velvet cap with white fur trim
1973 #8613 Winter Day red felt cap with white fur trim
Seven knit caps
The actual yarn caps must have been hand-knitted with very tiny needles and thin yarn. I doubt a machine could have made them in the 1960s and 1970s.

1970 pack Side Lights yellow knitted cap with matching pompom
1971 #3478 Long N Short of It white and red striped knitted cap with red pompom
