hats off...

She pours the remnants of the immortal milk into the elixir of her last Tetley teabag and sceptically gives it a stir for good luck. She puts the cup to her lips and sends a fraction on it's way. Perfect end to a long day, tea and the beautiful monstrosity they call fashion.The Royal Ascot... the prime location for explosive fashion and putting money on horses with names like "Peach Wicket" or "Skin Fire" and still feeling ok about it in the morning.
Of course there's more hats than Isabella herself could shake a stick at. It's Very much the opportunity to see who can balance the biggest millinery disaster on their heads without drawing too much attention from the horses themselves.
The Ascot is one of the biggest events on the social calendar so why would you not try and outdo someone else’s hat. Some hats clearly make toast, so yours has to of course be low in CO2 emissions and make microwave strudel... God forbid the heavens open and you end up transmitting a radio signal on your head and end up looking like a Harper's Bazaar mashed potato...

Here come the girls...

Enter David Shilling. Noah's jealous... fabulous.
Jokes aside, the Ascot is a place where you can express yourself through what you wear and become a work of art for the day, we support that. Can't wait for the next one, perhaps i'll see a hat that has a WI-FI function.
ONE'S HAT MAY ROLL.
