Subject: Fourth Doctor Fedora?? Thu Sep 13, 2012 8:37 am
I found this costume quality fedora in the Halloween section of a local department store and thought it'd be great to use as part of a Fourth Doctor costume. The more I look at it though...the more I feel like it's more Indiana Jones than Fourth Doctor. Opinions?

The 4ths hat is more of a flophat, but thay't do for a costume. Get a photo of the full getup and post it!

His hat was definitely a fedora, but the brim on this one doesn't look the same and the color looks a bit too light brown. Maybe if I beat it up a bit to get more of a worn look. Either way, not a bad find for 6 bucks.

It could work. Check out this place for references. I found it very valuable when I did my Fifth Doctor.

I found a fedora/flophat on clearance once, and got it (not for Doctor Who, but for Freddy Krueger). I think yours looks fine, just would have to dye it brown or something?

That would work for a 4th Doctor's cosutme. He also had a dark green floppy fedora. It is NOT a ggod Indiana Jones hat though....there is a LONG list of problems for it to work for that! LOL
