Royal Wedding: Hats

Princess Beatrice Elizabeth Mary of York, elder daughter of Prince Andrew, Duke of York, and Sarah, Duchess of York, and fifth in succession to the throne, startled the world by wearing a hat that looked as if it had been designed by Dr. Seuss.

Princess Beatrice’s hat is, I’m told, the kind of thing called “a fascinator.”

The New York Times offered a slideshow featuring other ladies’ (more becoming) hats as well.

Hat tips to Walter Olson & Amy Alkon.
