This hat is named after “Queen of the Milliners” Caroline Reboux (1837-1927) who—in addition to her hat-related innovations—divided half her profits among the lead cashier, workroom director and other women in her employ. She is perhaps best known for inventing the felt cloche hat. See http://tinyurl.com/reboux for more info on her!
