History
The hat's name derives from the stage adaptation of George du Maurier's 1894 novel Trilby. A hat of this style was worn in the first London production of the play, and promptly came to be called "a Trilby hat".WEB, Parker, Richard, 2021-04-27, Trilby vs Fedora: What's The Difference?,weblink Heritage Traditions, Its shape somewhat resembles the Tyrolean hat.{{citation needed|date=July 2016}}File:Motorhead-johngullo-photograph-sofajockey-com.jpg|thumb|upright=1.4|Phil Campbell with trademark trilby]] Traditionally it was made from rabbit hair felt, but now is usually made from other materials, such as tweed, straw, heavyweight cotton, wool and wool/nylon blends. The hat reached its zenith of common popularity in the 1960s; the lower head clearance in American automobiles made it impractical to wear a hat with a tall crown while driving. It faded from popularity in the 1970s when men's headwear went out of fashion and men's fashion focused on highly maintained hairstyles instead.The hat saw a resurgence in popularity in the early 1980s, when it was marketed to both men and women in an attempt to capitalise on a retro fashion trend.BOOK, Hofler, Robert, Zarco, Cyn, Wild Style.
