Audrey Hepburn in My Fair Lady
This is one of my favorite hats in cinema: Audrey Hepburn who goes to the Ascots (the horse racecourse town in Berkshire, England) wearing the extravagant black and white showstopper.
The Kentucky Derby showcases the latest in hat wear.
But, I am skeptical. Other then the overworked tuque, or heavy wool caps for winter, people do not wear hats.
And I am skeptical about the hat taste of contemporary Kentucky Derby participants. And whatever "accessory" they will wear to "compliment" the hat (by accessory I mean clothing, not jewelry, gloves, parasols and other items which are the correct definition of accessory). Contemporary women have not style, have no desire to follow style, and would rather present themselves in "comfortable," often masculine, clothing.
And I am right. Here is what makes the "fashionable" set:
Kentucky Derby Hats and Fashion, 2014
Ascot Hats and Fashion, 2014
The main intent of the attendees at both events is to display their bodies in skin-tight, cropped dresses, and to wear ridiculously high heels.
And this one may be channeling Audrey Hepburn, at the 2014 Kentucky Derby, but she hasn't got it.
