Hat, Not a Hat

Today we're going to play a fun little game. I have no idea who this girl is or why there are so many fabulous pictures of her in spectacular hats, but I think it is wonderful. I am personally suffering from an excess of hat inspiration at the moment, so I understand that hats make us do stupid things. I also understand that some Edwardian hats are just dumb looking (but delightfully so!). Nonetheless, I think you will have to agree with me that not all of these really count as hats. Are you ready to play? It's time for, "HAT or NOT A HAT!"


Excuse me, Miss, but you appear to be wearing a bundt pan on your head!

  1. I love the one with the caption, "non plus ultra." Not too extreme? Really?! C'est impossible.

  2. These are great! The second one would be very useful if she got hungry partway through a long event.

    I wonder why the "upside-down basket/bucket" theme shows up so often, seeing as it gives the model an air of ludicrous eccentricity. The second-to-last one, especially, looks like she decorated a garden bucket and stuck it on her head.

  4. Does she remind anyone else of Edith from Downton Abbey?
