I have a trilby hat that is a bit too tight. I’ve asked around and no one knows anywhere I can have it done. So, please, can anyone suggest seriously, how I can do it at home? Many thanks, Bramley.

Heat up the tea kettle or pot of water until the water begins to boil. Hold the hat's brim to get a good grip. ... Remove the hat from the heat for 30 seconds. ... Turn on the hairdryer to its highest setting. ... Once it's mildly damp, wear the hat and let it air dry to stretch into the right size for your head.

Why not buy 'your man' a larger one?
I think he is referring to his own trilby - the op is a man

Damp it slightly and pack it with newspaper
Go to your nearest charity shop and buy a new one. There are always plenty to choose from.
You can try it on in there too.
I'm tempted to write that making a Trilby larger might require the services of Svengali ;-)

However a more practical method might be to use one of these:

Thank you Rockrose. It’s an old Austrian hat actually and rather than throw it away I thought I’d have it enlarged - it’s not too small really. So your suggestion is worth a punt! Thank you.
Sorry BB .. the way I read your original question sounded like you were having problems with your butlers headwear !
