Did Jane Addams where a hat?

Answer 1

Possibly, headgear for women was popular in her day. Actress Lillian Russell popularized the so called Lampshade hat in the l890's. As Miss Addams was a humanitarian- and social worker , maybe something so ostentatious would not fit the job role. The Hull House, as the name implies, was indoor- and people, with very few exceptions ( oddly, Journalists are one) rarely wear hats indoors.
