Hats at Barneys New York.

This missive turned up in my mailbox this morning:

That's pretty terrible. I like to think they usually make up for offerings such as that. Their ties are lovely and their women's shoes and jewelry, but sheesh - - that hat has some answering for.

 

[skwerl-hat]

is that a hat?
i thought it was a sock puppet the guys wearing a sock puppet!
Oh sartorial standards thou hast fled and men hath lost there reason.

 

[ScionPI2005]

That's what you get when you put your hat in a blender. :eusa_doh:

 

[Brian Sheridan]

I think they are very tall and stood up under a ceiling fan while wearing those "hats."

85 smackers!!!

for recycled sweaters .... cripes! those are fugly!

 

[carter]

Those are NOT Hats!
shakeshead shakeshead shakeshead
:eusa_doh: Those are sssss...craps!

 

[Miss_Bella_Hell]

Oh jeez, so they're ugly winter hats. I assure you Barney's still has some of the best fashion the world has to offer. Deep breaths boys.

 

[Feraud]

They look warm.

"Recycled"

As is so often the case with things like this:
RECYCLED OR DESTROYED???

 

[LordBest]

Forgive my ignorance, but are they referring to the mutilated marsupials perched on those two unfortunates' heads, or are the hats under said creatures?

cross between a sock puppet and a sweater.

Some wild chinese joke with a factory of left over sweaters, and a line of sock puppets combine and what do you have a new hat for the yankee market. Warm perhaps , but so is my mounted police fur hat but i dont wear it outside except when it mighty cold minus 20 and the human ears might fall off from under my fedora. My fifteen year old daughter has whipped up hats with more style on her singer sewing machine. 59Lark.

 

[Wil Tam]

well they're going to have to re-recycle those!

hmmmmmmmmmm..........Aren't they just chunky boarding beanies with ear flaps? No accounting for taste you know. Also, a fool and his money........

I know we are supposed to talk down on these hats (at least that is the consensus above), but I can think of a good thing about them. They do have a strange "trendy" sort of look to them. I don't go in for trendy very often, but I have to admit they do look a bit trendy.

These would go well with jeans and a 25 year old body.

 

[St.Ignatz]

Look a bit like Blade Runner wardrobe rejects.

 

[just_me]

They look very warm. That's a good thing, right?

 

[Tomasso]

They look very warm. That's a good thing, right?

If you say so.

I have jeans but not a 25 year old body and I would wear the hat that the guy is wearing if I was somewhere the temps are really low. I don't like the ear flappy things on the other hat. lol

Granted, they're not vintage hats, but I think they're sort of interesting (though I wouldn't pay what they're asking for them). And Warm and they're not made of dead animals.
