A Parisian hat maker matches her customers to their perfect hats but lacks her own ideal match in life until one birthday when she ventures out in her favorite bonnet, which is snatched away by a crow, leaving her to consider a range of offered alternative hats. Each year on her birthday, Madame Chapeau ventures out to dinner wearing her favorite bonnet. This time, a crow snatches her hat and flies away. As she chases the crow, admiring neighbors offer her their own hats to wear.
