Johnny Depp literally eats part of his hat - Mad hattery

Filed under: Accessories

We know that Johnny Depp has a thing for a nice fedora, but apparently his love affair with head gear goes even deeper than that -- you could say that he's got a taste for hats. In fact, on the set of his current film Alice in Wonderland -- reportedly starring Helen Bonham-Carter and Anne Hathaway -- director Tim Burton told reporters that Johnny is taking his role as the Mad Hatter so literally that he actually took a bite out of his character's top hat. Yum.

Animal Fashion takes over the runway

Filed under: Runway Trends, Accessories, Clothing



Some of the outfits we see on the runway during fashion week are totally outlandish and unnatural. Or so you might think.

Over at Lemondrop, the new AOL site for women, they have an amazing gallery that pairs wild runway with the wild kingdom. It turns out all those designers are just visiting the zoo or watching a lot National Geographic documentaries.

Birds, lizards, snakes and aquatic life come in some pretty wild shapes and colors...which is not to say we want to turn them into hats, shoes or bags. But we wouldn't turn our noses up at some of the "inspired by" fashions in the gallery. That gold ram headdress is perfect for a cocktail we're going to next week!

Changing of the guards: British troops may get fur-free hats

Filed under: Style in the News

In a move that's sure to make anti-fur activists giddy, Britain's Ministry of Defence is currently searching for synthetic material to outfit those stonefaced iconic guards at Buckingham Palace. Today, the MoD is meeting with Peta representatives to find a reasonable substitute for those funky black bearskin hats. Yes, they're really made of Canadian black bear fur, and what's more -- it takes an entire bear to make just one hat. So, the MoD's switch to synthetic isn't purely symbolic.

Government officials have pondered the idea of finding a substitute before, but apparently they haven't like any of their options. Now Peta's bringing out the big guns. They've got anti-fur designers Vivienne Westwood and Stella McCartney working on the case.

Since these guards are one of the foremost icons of British military tradition, the standards are set understandably high. In other words, cheap rugs aren't going to cut it. If you're an aspiring headgear designer, the Telegraph is accepting submissions for an alternative helmet design.

Tip of the day: Be a madhatter this fall

Filed under: Style Tip of the Day


As much as we hate to admit, fall is around the corner and we have to start thinking about hats. Though we aren't a huge fan of the cold, it does mean that we can sport these cute, classic hats for a few seasons.

Though each of these styles has definitely seen their fair share of "trendy" times, they have risen above as the cream on top and have stayed classic hat icons for decades now.

Here's a little info on each, how to wear it, and a few examples to get you started.

Stylelist Poll: Floppy hats hot or cold?

Filed under: Accessories, Clothing, Swimwear and Lingerie, Polls and Quizzes


At StyleDash, the summer months present us with a quandary of sorts: how to enjoy the sun without getting baked. Some of us (*ahem* me) will burn at the mere mention of the sun, but the rest of us worry about balancing getting some color without needlessly exposing our skin to harmful UV rays.

Fortunately, fashion has offered us a helping hand via the sunhat. A big, floppy sunhat, while not always fashionable, can do a lot to block the worst of the sun, while still letting us soak up some vitamin D and enjoy the outdoors. Even better, in typical fashionista, well, fashion, big overly dramatic sunhats are becoming quite popular this season.

So our friends at Stylelist have this question for their newest weekly poll: Are you hot or cold on uber-dramatic sunhats?

We think that the right style, worn the right way, can be positively stunning -- but we'd love to know what you think. Vote in the Stylelist poll and then sound-off in the comments!

Hats outlawed in British pubs

Filed under: Accessories, Style in the News


As Kyle recently pointed out, Brits somehow rule when it comes to pulling off the ol' headgear. Perhaps it's centuries of tradition, or the fact that they don't limit their choices to ball caps -- probably a combination of both. Still, whatever the reason, it seems that citizens in Yorkshire might soon have to fight for their right to wear hats (in bars).

Yes, as stupid as it sounds, Yorkshire police are asking barkeeps to make their customers remove their hats in order to make sure that security cameras can get a good look at them. Apparently, the local cops just want to make sure that they can identify the perpetrators if any funny business goes down. To us here at Styledash, that sounds like a hard pill to swallow. You give up your hats and then what's next? Jackets? Boots? We believe the right to wear a hat, however tasteful or hideous, shall not be infringed.

Filed under: Accessories, Style in the News, Clothing


Indiana Jones and the Kingdom of the Crystal Skull
is fun and action-packed. Total summertime fun. Plus, it brings back Karen Allen as the feisty Marion Ravenwood, our favorite heroine from the films. Are you aware that she has the best action figure of all time from the original film? Also, she's an innovative knitwear designer.

Karen went to FIT when she was 17, and returned in 2002 to study machine kitting technology. In 2003 she opened her own studio in Great Barrington, Massachusetts where she produces beautiful sweaters, scarves, hats, gloves and more, all made of Italian and Scottish cashmere.

eBay WTF of the Day: My hat it has three corners

Filed under: Accessories, Men

It would not be my hat.  No, really.
My hat it has three corners
Three corners has my hat
And had it not three corners
It would not be my hat!

Remember that song from when you were little? We do. We think it was usually taught to American 3-7 year olds when talking about colonial America, which they do a lot in American schools until you turn about 7 (old enough to start asking hard questions).

But look! We found the hat! Two of them!
