The bowler hat was created in 1849 in England. Initially a practical and durable item for gamekeepers, it enjoyed great success and became a symbol of respectability and social mobility, quickly adopted by various social classes between 1880 and 1920.
It became an iconic accessory in literature, art (Magritte), and cinema (Chaplin).
Its name comes simply from the melon, the fruit because of its shape.
