An ivory lace cap is formed by a rounded crown that gathers in layered folds at the back. Floral patterns are woven into a fine mesh, creating a translucent, airy fabric with intricate lace openings. Two long, pointed panels hang down on either side. A thin border traces the curved bottom edge of the cap and follows the length of each side panel.
