Large fitting hat for lady

I'm female and in need of a summer hat. Unfortunately, I have a large skull, so most women's hats are too small. I want an extra wide-brimmed straw hat that can accommodate my noggin.
Most adjustable hats are designed either for men or are of the fabric&hiking style. I have a drawcord fabric hat for traveling already. I just want something nice that will go with casual summer dresses, rather than for hiking around the outback.
Any retailers or brands out there?

I also have a big head. My hat was bought on holiday in Stresa, Lake Maggiore, so a bit far to travel. However, I was in TKMaxx the other day and tried on a few hats in there - they seemed generously sized. Usually hats perch on top of my head.0

Etsy has lots - e.g. https://www.etsy.com/uk/listing/535998497/womens-larger-head-size-natural-woven?ref=market0

My dad used to say there was only one 'ead bigger than my 'ead and the was Birkenhead! My hat size is 7 5/8, don't know what that is in new money, but I've bought a couple of casual summer hats with very wide brims from maxcap "Big hats for big heads". Trouble is, they've been selling the same designs, in the same fabric for five years now! Think they must have bought a job lot from China. Both have drawstrings (for adjusting the size down), but I've removed those and they are the best fit I've found.I’m a Senior Forum Ambassador and I support the Forum Team on the Competition Time, Site Feedback and Marriage, Relationships and Families boards.

Sadly, neither H&M and Marks were any good. I've tried the Marks hats on in store and they were still too small.
The maxcap site was good ( OH also has an extra large noggin). Unfortunately, all the hats are fabric. I already have a fabric "travelling" hat. At this rate I'm going to have to go to a milliner!0
