Women's hats are back?

[Slim Portly]

Movies have always had a huge impact on popular fashion, and it's being reported that the new Sex & the City movie, along with celebrity trend-setters who have already jumped on the bandwagon, will influence more women to wear fancy hats again in the near future. This should be an interesting development in the weeks and months to come.

I hope they do come back into fashion, then maybe I won't get so many strange looks while wearing my lovely hats.lol

Absolutely. It will be great if it's true. I know that fashion is cyclic, and more and more I've been hearing how the styles that we here prefer are coming back into popularity. Perhaps we'll all be vindicated. lol

The Missus went last night, at midnight, to see Sex & The City the movie. This morning she tells me, one of the boy-friends in the film, he wears a fedora. Just what we needed, more competition on OFAS!
great... lol lol

I saw a thing on Breakfast Television today on "How to Dress Like Indiana Jones and Sex in the City"

It was...interesting

Hats yes. Playtex Gloves, not so much.

Hey mister, I rock those gloves.

Awesome, because god knows I spend enough scratch on hats! It's a bit of a problem for me, actually...

I like the prospect of women's hats coming back. Men can get away with hats to a greater degree than women, at least when it comes to something other than a straw sunhat or baseball cap. Hopefully it won't be something strictly relegated to eveningwear.

A hat gives an outfit "a great deal of style," says Smith. "But to pull it off, you have to be a hat person -- a creative, confident person who likes attention, likes to stand out in a crowd."

What if we aren't, but we want to wear hats anyway? I guess the prerequisite there would be thick skin.

As long as it isn't

like the "Spring Threw Up" hat we all commented on before... you couldn't pay me to wear that!

SJP wears an even wackier headpiece in the movie--but also makes a joke about it later on, so we don't have to.

Far more disturbing is the trailer for the upcoming remake of "The Women" updated for the SATC generation that was screened beforehand. At first I thought it was a mere SATC rip-off featuring older chicks (right down to giving Meg Ryan wild Carrie Bradshaw-esque waves)...it took me quite a while to realize why the character's names and the plot seemed so familiar! I shudder in trainwreck terror--yet I cannot look away!

I have never been able to wear the usual hats (I look awful in baseball caps!) but I've always managed to pull off the vintage hat look. Especially wide brimmed sunhats! I do hope this is true, because it would be nice to see more women wearing hats!

 

[DrSpeed]

I applaud it. I have a soft spot for hat wearing women, as my wife can confirm
I suppose I'm not even considering looks first. A hat may be advantageous for those, but it's all about attitude and presence, far more interesting than a pretty shell!

 

[Darhling]

Well I never wear hats, but I wore my old gucci fedora-like hat yesterday and even though I got some looks on the street, I got some great compliments too and I felt a bit wicked in it too... okay VERY wicked!!

 

[MissS]

Hmmm, who cares, I say! In or out, I'll keep wearing them when the mood arises. Wore a cute little 40's tilt with black netting yesterday - like you Darhling, it makes me feel a different - for me a little sexy and sultry? Must be all that peek-a-booing through the net.

sure sweetie, you can just snap one of the hat too. I haven't tried any lady hats yet - so far I am into manly hats lol hmm makes me think, maybe I can find a man with the same hatsize as myself and I can pursuade him to let me use them!
