Capone owned several Panama hats and even imported a hat maker from Ecuador just to make them for him. For that extra gangster flair, wear your hat slightly tilted to the left. Pants of the 1920s were mostly high-waisted (at or above belly button) with flat fronts until the late ’20s, when pleats were introduced. Pants were straight through the leg and cuffed at the bottom with a crease down the center. They fit narrow in the early ’20s and very wide by the end of the decade.

A ruthless character known for his influence in the bootlegging and gambling industries, Siegel was born in 1906 to Jewish American parents. Like Capone, Siegel was recognized as a celebrity gangster who was greatly feared among rivals and accomplices. His popularity was attributed to his good looks and charm, which seemed to compensate some for his criminal behavior. After first specializing in bootlegging, Siegel traveled to Las Vegas to set up shop when Prohibition was overturned. Here, he operated some of the town's first casinos and opened the door for construction of the Las Vegas Strip. During his heyday, Siegel often wore custom suits, lavish ties, and upscale shoes. While he owned several gangster style hats, such as the fedora, Siegel would occasionally sport a Panama hat too. Charles Luciano Along the way he claimed to have been shot, stabbed and had his nose almost bitten off in a pub brawl (“I’ve got holes all over my body”). In interviews he explained that he had had to kill to stay alive: “I don’t enjoy killing people. But... it’s like playing football. The more you do it, the easier it gets.”
