33. Tophat
38 Bearskin
40 Laurel Leaves
50 Panama

Trying to think of some more

[Salty]

Hi fishsticks.

I thought top hat for 33, but isn't it two words, or at least top-hat?

38 Bearskin is good!

Can you explain the reasoning for 40 laurel leaves?

50 Panama is a possible, but isn't it made of palm leaves rather than straw?

17 boater?

[fishsticks]

9 Mantilla?
43 Dolly Varden
35 Mitre
5 Sombrero
17 Boater

[Salty]

Thanks both.

What were your thoughts for 9 mantilla, fishsticks?

43, 35 and 5 are good.

17 boater might fit, but I'm not sure about the "difficult to bear" bit of the clue.

[Salty]

I've sussed 9 Mantilla - it's backwards in the clue!

[Salty]

Also found some Panama "straw" hats...!

[fishsticks]

Hi
Instead of Top Hat maybe Topper.
The Panama Hat is made from a straw like material.
Laurel Wreath not Leaves. Laurel is the other one in Laurel and Hardy. Winners used to wear a laurel wreath

[fishsticks]

Hi

To bear anagram of boater

[fishsticks]

What do you think of sweatband for 19

Pixie Hood could be right, take the p from pastry. e from case, roman numerals for twelve XII in the middle.

[Salty]

I can't see how you get to sweatband for 19 - what did you think?

For 41 I reasoned XI=eleven in PIE (pastry) to make PIXIE, but couldn't get HOOD from "twelve".
