tricorn hats
Colonial era headgear
A tricorn hat is a hat with a broad brim folded up on three sides to form a triangle, creating three distinct points or corners.
The style was fashionable in 18th-century Europe and America, worn by everyone from aristocrats to soldiers to pirates.
Today tricorns appear mainly in historical costumes and reenactments: The Revolutionary War reenactor adjusted his tricorn hat.
