Putting in the pattern could actually break up the shape and therefore bring the emphasis to the face. i would lower the value of the hat slightly and raise the value of her face shadow slightly. Maybe 1-1 1/2 values. Do a small color study before embarking on the actual painting to work out color and values. The reference is your starting point, not your end result. You may want to reshoot the hat yourself & match the picture. I would also soften the background.
