Trilby hat

In Margery Allingham's novel The Gyrth Chalice Mystery, in the Albert Campion series, she makes mention of a "Trilby hat." This is a hat with "a shorter brim which is angled down at the front and slightly turned up at the back." It derives its name from the stage adaptation of George du Maurier's 1894 novel Trilby.
