                        &lt;p&gt;Hi Elaine,&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;do you have any tips on how to deal with stiffening the brim in the case of an upturned velour or Melusine?  I&#039;m wary of the white marks or fading if I add stiffener there.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;thanks^&lt;/p&gt;                    </summary>
