Las Sinsombrero
Las Sinsombrero (Spanish for "hatless women") were a group of female thinkers and artists in the Generation of '27. They were so named for removing their hats in public as a form of protest. Film producer Tània Balló describes the hats as representing an "intellectual corset that relegated them to the mere role of wives and mothers".[1]
A 2015 film about the group, named Las Sinsombrero, included the actors Maruja Mallo and Concha Mendez.[2]
