Top hats are always so elegant. A good top hat is made from silk and you use a velvet mini pillow to brush the silk to give it a beautiful shine. These hats are from Patey Hats . Patey Hats is part of the Firmin & Sons group, who made Prince William’s uniform for his wedding. The top hats are made using the same skills as hat makers in the eighteenth century.
This is a rare vintage white silk tophat (it’s not for sale). I love the old labels inside the hat.

Emily London creates both ready to wear and bespoke collections. She has also done exclusive cocktail collections for Fenwick and she designs for Jaeger and Aquascutum. I chose some wonderful hats for Ascot!

I’m a fan of Princess Beatrice’s Philip Treacy royal wedding hat. I know lots of people don’t like it and there’s even a Facebook page about it, but I like the hat.
The hat is presently being auctioned on eBay for UNICEF UK and Children in crisis. There is still about 4 days, 18 hours before the bid closes and it’s already at £18,200.00!

I quite like hats although I do feel a bit too shy to wear them so I quite enjoy going places where one ought to wear a hat. (In my dreams I often wear a hat). I was visiting Stephen Jones ‘ shop in Covent Gardens as I’m the stylist for the fashion show at Royal Ascot and saw I some amazing hats. I love hats that are quite whimsical, his 2011 SS collection is called Drifting & Dreaming !These hats (in the picture above) are from a collaboration between Stephen Jones and Manolo Blahnik and the ones below are from Spring Summer 2011.
