MY WIFE'S AKUBRA

[K.D. Lightner]

When I envision women in fedoras, I see someone from the Golden Age:

JT's wife has beauty, class, style. Even my mother, who hates fedoras, had to admit she is a classy looking lady and looked great in those hats.

If any of you want to envision Britney, imagine what she will look like when she is my age. Or even when she is 40.

While there may not be a big market for women's specific fedoras, I don't know why there is no one selling a hat that looks exactly like the one in casablanca. It is often pictured right there next to Bogies hat.[huh]

Here is another fedora-wearing Golden Ager to compare, no one could wear a hat like she could -- any hat. I thought she looked most divine in fedoras.

Hope that displays, lots of dots and dashes there.

Nope.

But if you Google Garbo you will see someone who could wear any hat.

JT, the hat looks great and the pic of your Mrs. is TOPS!!!

Great work on the hat, J.T.!

Dee, you look terrific in your hats, and as one vented-Jackaroo owner to another, you have great taste in hats as well!

Cheers,
Tom

When I envision women of the Golden Age wearing fedoras, something like this comes to mind....

The lovely Rachel Blakely, as "Marguerite Krux" of the TV series Lost World. Though the hat may be more Akubra, than fedora. She is an Aussie, after all.



....Indycop, I have to confess to staring at the picture of Gloria Estefan, for several minutes before noticing she was wearing a hat.

Good looking hat on a classy lady. It probably looks better on her anyway!

Hilarious and so believably true
