Hats are not required when ladies have tea with the Queen, but they are still the most creative fashion statements you will see.



Flowers like roses and daisies, softly-colored ribbons, exotic feathers, paper butterflies, matching colors, contrasting colors, theme hats, antique hats, new hats, borrowed hats, custom-made hats, Renaissance hats, Victorian hats, red hats, you’ll see them all.

For the 2008 royal garden party at Buckingham Palace, ladies from other countries (Africa and Burma) wore native hand-made hats.

Younger women wore fascinators, a headband with a miniature hat or feather arrangement on one side.

Some women wore no hats, and some brought several hats to wear for different events.

If I were to have tea with the Queen, I would wear a romantic hat, possibly circa Queen Anne, rather than a smart modern hat.

What hat would you wear?
