The Antipodean thread
Phryne Fisher Anybody read any of the Phryne Fisher books by Kerry Greenwood. They are set in 30's Melbourne and about a female detective. Almost Bond like but in a very femanine kind of way.

Hat comeback
Certainly over summer there seemed to be more trilbies and fedoras in my part of the Sydney CBD. Now its getting a little chilly I seem to see many around although I have spotted a couple of Panama's. If you see a guy around Wynyard wearing a Akubra Hampton and a trench coat you'll know its me. -

Fedora without a suit advice
I am a very proud owner of a Akubra Fedora (internationaly named Sydney, I think). I wear it nearly everyday to work. As I work in a design studio, there is no way I could come into the office wearing a suit. Are there any websites or pics of vintage style clothes that suit a Fedora without... -

I just got a Akubra Fedora on the weekend and lo and behold it had a hat chord. I had never used or seen one before. After a little research on the web I found this great thread and forum. Wikipedia on this page on Fedora's seems to refer to the wind chord as a "wind trolley". Anybody know the...
