to this day, eighteen years ago, when a young Crown Princess Victoria welcomed then Russian President Boris Yeltsin on state visit to Sweden. Her chocolate straw hat with low crown and gently upcurled brim was charming.

A brown straw hat on the 2nd of December? When there’s clearly snow in the air? Very strange choice, even though it does look nice on Victoria.
I kind of feel like this hat would have been right at home on Buster Keaton.
There is nothing wrong with the hat but I keep getting an Anne of Green Gables vibe!
Hat with a slightly schoolgirlish air but with a sophisticated twist, perfect for the young lady she was then.
I agree with what Edie Engel says: December 2, 2015 at 1:16 pm. This was the perfect hat for her at her age.
Oh, so young, adorable. (I’ll second that description.)
And what a saucy little hat! Wonderful. It’s pretty with her coloring and brown eyes.
Would love to see her wear more playful hats.
Adorable!
