80s inspired black and red toque hat with button detail

This large black toque hat has an overlap detail with a single large button and flares out in a classic 1980s style. It was inspired by the geometric shapes of Russian constructivist fashion in the 1920s, which in turn inspired some New Romantic styles in the early 1980s. It also nods to the Gary Numan album Telekon.
