The Hat Thread

Well, I didn't do them myself! All the hats on the posted photos are made by Susanne Juul, who also creates for Crownprincess Mary.

I thought you meant your collection as in a collection you made yourself. Nevertheless, some of them are great.

what a fabulous thread!! I love hats so much, they give you this instant feeling of sophistication I wish I had the guts to wear also a little bit more extravagant ones...

I love that last one too, zarina looks very delicate! i wonder how all the shaping is done. have you ever washed it? i wonder if it would lose its shape that way

 

[MulletProof]

Thank you everybody!
No, I haven't washed my hat. It isn't possible. The shaping is done by warming it up and stretching it. That is how she works.

Anyone know where to buy Philip Treacy hats or bags online? or in stores in the San Francisco area? Thanks!

I've seen P Treacy hats at either Neiman's or Saks ( maybe both stores) in SF. I *think* it was around 2 yrs ago and don't know if they still stock. They were nice but not the flamboyant styles shown in this thread.

i'm too curious, mulletproof

thanks for answering zarina. sounds interesting
if she heats it, then perhaps she's using a synthetic straw...
do you know if Susanne Juul has a website?

Love the hat in #117, would adore one for myself, but rarely consider hats to look good on people with shorter hair. I do own one, very Chanel-y strawhat which i used sometimes last summer tying a black/white polkadot silk scarf around it.

Sorry I only saw your question now. She has a website, but so far unfortunately without any information www.susannejuul.dk
If you wanna a see more of her hats, you better search for pictures of Mary.
It is some years ago, I bought my last hat - her prices have increased a lot, and I really don't have space for more hats (they take a lot of space to store), but I used to know her. I was one of her first customers, and we had a lot of fun, when I tried on my hats.
No, it isn't synthetic straw.

I know a few of these images have been posted before, but just to present everything in context...

Philip Treacy studied fashion design in Dublin before winning a place at the Royal College of Art. In addition to running his own successful hat business, he has made Haute-Couture Hats for such fashion houses as Chanel, Valentino, Gianni Versace and Alexander McQueen

Does anyone have photos of beautiful pillbox hats? Does anyone wear them anymore?

 

[stilettogirl84]

for thsoe who wear hats- do you leave them on when you get inside? if not isn't you hair all mussed up?

I like the idea of a hat- but never wear them in real life because of my hair

 

[semolinapilchard]

i'm trying to find a treacy-esque trilby but not exactly having killer luck.
regarding the above, i always leave them on when inside.
