Hats
 

After watching the Royal Wedding I was amazed how many were wearing hats.

If you look at pics back arount the 20, 30, 40 and 50 era men and women always wore a hat when going out.

What do you think of the trend of wearing hats?

Do you think there will be a resurrance of hats?

If so, will you start wearing one?

Re: Hats
 

Not sure if there will be a renewed interest in ladies wearing hats.
I know that I would not wear one. Just not a fashion that I care for.

Re: Hats
 

I notice no one was wearing capri pants.

Do you all think that some one indicates there are standards of dress for these events?

Re: Hats
 

I don't know if it will be a trend again. Seems like hair styles are so important here, that people aren't going to cover up their hair.

I used to have an electric blue fedora when I was in my early 20's. I loved that hat, but haven't wore one since. I'm not especially fond of hats.

When I first came to Cincinnati in 1957, a woman or teen age girl was not considered "dressed for Church" if she did not wear a hat, hose, and gloves to Sunday School. This was a "white" church.

Re: Hats
 

Its not about fashion trends. In Europe women still remember they are supposed to cover their heads in Church and some do it all the time.

Esther, hats in England and especially to weddings is tradition.

It was even stated in the 22 page etiquette book each invitee received.

I believe Esther is talking about it being a trend in America again. I know what she is talking about because my mother had a closet full of hat boxes. I was fascinated by them when I would open that closet door! Full of round hat boxes. LOL!

Well, hats are all around Memphis because of COGIC, so it's the rest of the white world that needs to catch up - lol!!

I love hats, but I look terrible in them. I believe there will be a resurrection of them because a couple of my friends actually wore them for Easter this year! They looked stunning in them.

Re: Hats
 

I don't like how they mash your hair down. I didn't see a whole lot of hats in the news clips of the royal wedding that were especially nice looking. Although Beckham's wife's hat was nice. I guess I like the "pillbox" style more than any of the others. I think it compliments the face and allows a nice hair style to be seen.

I was surprised that Pippa Middleton didn't wear long sleeves, as it is generally required.

Rockin' Stephen!!!! :highfive :heeheehee

Re: Hats
 

The blue hat is really cool looking. Don't care for the other two. :thumbsup

Re: Hats
 

LOL! Love your son's hat! I was going to get my grandson a "Bevo" hat at Academy, but opted out as the weather is warming up fast. Should have picked it up anyway, just for one picture. She had him up on a horse this weekend with his Longhorn cap. He was having a big time! LOL!

Re: Hats
 

I love hats, and look great in them. :)

Re: Hats
 

It might just be me... but I have always thought people who don't wear hats are lacking something! LOL!

Re: Hats
 

How do they keep them on???

Some of them were just weird looking.

Re: Hats
 

YUCK! :toofunny

Re: Hats
 

I saw a picture up close. A clear handband was attached to the inside of the hat. Kind of like how a "fascinator" stays on. Didn't Fergie's daughter's look ridiculous? The most outlandish hats of all. LOL!

Re: Hats
 

Psss "What is a fascinator?"

Re: Hats
 

They do look beautiful!!!! The black and blue hat on the left is my favorite. I love hats, but Jeff doesn't care for them, so I rarely wear them anymore. My favorites are either really wide-brimmed hats, floppy sun hats or cloches. (And just about anything with a close-to-the-head retro look)

Hats can be hard to pull off, too--the whole outfit has to mesh with the hat.

--THIS hat is pretty horrid - it looks like someone's "innards" being worn on top of the head! :vomit

Re: Hats
 

Oh we called them headbands. New and improved names. :)

BTW... have you seen the forehead bands?

Re: Hats
 

Ummmm, NO!!

Re: Hats
 

OMW That first one is something else! :heeheehee

Re: Hats
 

LOL!!!! Princess Eugenie must be a fan of these types of hats:

Re: Hats
 

AMAZING!!!!! :heeheehee

Re: Hats
 

Not wedding attire, IMO

Too silly.

Re: Hats
 

Well, I guess at least her clothing matches. LOL!

Actually, her dress in the second picture is really nice. She ruined it with that stupid hat. I think her mother has made enough of a spectacle herself without her daughters adding to it.

Re: Hats
 

The resemblance is uncanny! :heeheehee

Re: Hats
 

Stupid would be the better word. :heeheehee
