Tops of Old Town

I found hats that look like they were custom made to match the dresses that our five family members are wearing to a garden party wedding. The styles also suit the widely varying personailites. The variety available in this shop is simply astounding and Sheila is most helpful! Totally satisfied with the whole experience.

You know you are about to have an amazing experience when you walk in and you hear welcome coming from the back room. Older black lady owner of the store has been doing this for 47 years... in my mind I'm thinking, this woman is about to be very brutally honest about what I pick up... did not move once from her chair just looked at me and would comment on the hat I was trying, I got three VERY STERN NO, and finally I got a YES. I ran for a mirror and I was just shocked... I officially have a hat place , and my bank account is not going to be happy with me. 10/10 I will physically take people there if they ask where I buy my hats.

Small shop with a lot of selection to chose from. I was visiting from out of town in February, which I guess is the end of mens hat season in DC. There wasn’t a lot left to chose from but I found what I wanted. The owner was nice and friendly with good suggestions on hats that suited me. The only reason for 4 star was the clutter of the shop. The place needs some organization badly, overall marvelous experience I will definitely return if I am in the area.

Great hat selection. Friendly and informative staff. Mens and women’s selection of hats in a plethora of colors and styles.

Iconic hats! The hats are high quality. The one I wore throughout Italy held up really well. Brand: Scala

My favorite hat shop in the DMV area. Great service and decent prices for quality hats. I have three fedoras from their shop. They have stood up well to the test of time!

This place has a beautiful selection and an extremely helpful owner, who helped my boyfriend find the right fit and style for sun protection at work. This is an Alexandria gem, and a great local place to support.

Church Lady Hats are worth every penny

Reasonable prices, good customer service, and very beautiful hats, fascinators, and jewelry.

I'll go back in a few months to get my Kentucky Derby hat.
