Hats On The Catwalk - SS08 - New York - Ralph Lauren
No other show managed to tie together the millinery and the clothing as well as Ralph Lauren. By sticking to very traditional shapes in both mannish and ultra feminine styles what you saw on the catwalk was a complete outfit. Drop dead wearable!
I'm particularly fond of the Spanish styled affair with the gloves,
dotty skirt and Cordoban riding hat - and not just because I have just
the hat in stock!
Mannish
Bowlers, Toppers and Jockey Caps in pink and black silk.
Feminine
It's nice to see the fascinator beginning to take it's place in New York as the perfect summer event hat
But for full on effect you just have to have the biggest brim! My fair lady, eat your heart out!

OK I can't speak French, but the "top" seemed appropriate. I may have to get two hats instead of one (I haven't forgotten the felt peacock hat to be :). I may have to get one to go with a mannish suit http://www1.talbots.com/talbotsonline/prodnav/viewall.aspx?pfid=1503&h=W&sk=W&XID= row 1 column 4.

Ahh, the felt peacock - I get a creative tingling in my fingers just thinking about it!
Nice suit! Are you brave enough to go for a top hat? ;)
I adore hats and bit decadent creations.
