The Gray Mini Top Hat

Someone who knows more than I do about hats might be able to tell you the official name of this shape.  I call this the mini top hat. I chose this hat from the collection of hats offered to me by my friend Sheila at the same time as she gave me the birthday cake hat.
 
I wanted this hat solely because of the shape. It’s hard to tell from the pictures, but it’s asymmetrical—the side with the bow on it is longer than the opposite side. To me, it’s like a cartoon version of a top hat—scrawny, but expressing its outsized, jaunty personality. If this hat could talk, it’d make wisecracks.
 
Maybe I like this hat because that’s sometimes how I see myself: a short person spouting jokes.
