The wearing of hats

[sawyl]

At tonight's xmas do, Michael got all enthusiastic about the reintroduction of the bowler hat. I quite like the idea of wearing a smart black suit and a bowler whilst carrying a tightly furled umbrella, a la John Steed, although I'm not convinced I'd be able to carry the look off without looking completely absurd.

Maybe, before the impulse wears off, I should order one, that way, the whole thing will be a fait accompli by the time my enthusiasm has dimmed.

I'd rather like a bowler hat, but having a slightly larger than normal head means I'd have to pay the sort of price as in the link you gave...

...though I'm quite tempted to anyway, but not if they're fur felt. hmm. The website doesn't say.

If you do get one, be sure to post to show_your_hat

I was worried about the fur thing too. Maybe we've identified a gap in the market. Maybe I should quit my job and set up a vegetarian friendly hatters. Hmm, sounds promising...
