Happy Mothers Day weekend ,all!
Wearing Wormser today. Not a flashy hat. Doesn't have a fancy bow or bright colored ribbon. Understated to say the least.
The Wormser logo says, " Supreme Quality"..... they weren't kiddin'
I love this hat!

I can see why you love the hat. It's a great hat! Just look at that felt, and the bow!

Supposed to be a bit on the warm side today. Might get out into the woods for a bit of walkabout and haven't decided on a hat for that yet. But I took advantage of the cool morning to try out a few hats with my new 1950s summer dinner jacket.

Champ ultra stingy with a cattleman crease.

Dobbs, is this a Lords hat?
I think I prefer the Dobbs, though the Milan might be a better choice for summer evening weather. Ha ha.

Now perhaps a few hands of chemin de fer before I get ready for the woodlands.

Have a great weekend,
Michael
I like the white hats! What a great bunch of hats from which to choose!

SCRAMPOPULOUSLY MAGNIFICENT, Michael!! Super way to greet a Saturday, sir! I may report you to @Keep Dandyism Alive , though!!
Thanks Charlie. If the party started last night I think it's okay.

Bond, James Bond. Love that light colored Dobbs, I don't normally think of a Lord's Hat being in a light color, but YESSSSS! It is really cool. Detail shots. That Milan is a perfect formally casual choice. Great jacket, perhaps a candidate to go all Matterific!
That Sean Connery was a piker, Red. The hat is just a modern Dobbs, so no real special details to show. The tux is real mid 50s stuff though, Palm Beach Cloth and all. So no dye gets near it. Unless, that is, it is irreparably bloodied in some run in with SMERSH. I have a modern silk number picked out for a Mattelicious dye job.

The woods didn't pan out so I switched to shorts and a Stevens milan for some bike riding. Now some uncut corduroy bell bottoms that my landlord just gave me and the Stevens for some relaxing around the shack.

So a quick jump of 20 years into the mid 70s.

Hope everyone's weekend is playing out according to plan.

I'm trying to make up my mind. I need a new hat for my ecru-colored tights and earth-brown caped character. It will be either,

(a) a camel-colored Bowler,

(b) a Chocolate-colored Bowler, or

(c) a Chocolate-colored Porkpie.

Suggestions?
