 Bowler, Coke and Derby :: mike.whybark.com   (Site not responding. Last check: )
Well, as far as I can tell, in 1888, an Earl of Derby (probably the 15th, although this source says it was the 12th, since the 14th lived from 1799-1869, it’s unlikely that it was the 12th) visited the United States wearing the style we now call a derby, in blind recollection of his visit.
The first bowler hat was designed by the hatters James and George Lock of St. James Street in London in 1850 for their client William Coke II, later the Earl of Leicester.
They take a great deal of care in the hand fitting of their bowlers which is essential in a hat which needs to be snugly but not tightly fitted to the head.

 Bowler Drag
The cholas of the Andes are not the only women to demonstrate that the bowler hat can easily cross gender as well as social boundaries.
The bowler has always looked good on women, perhaps because it is at once evocative of the Victorian male world and yet round and small enough, like the boater, to be easily adaptable to the female physique (remember Sabina's bowler hat in The Unbearable Lightness of Being?).
The bowler, or DERBY, never did play a major role in female dress-as did trousers and sports jackets for example-but its occasional appearance is suggestive.
