Princess Alexandra of Kent does indeed look fantastic in this russet fur bumper hat. The colour is just superb on her. I always enjoy your Hat From The Past columns HatQueen, so please keep them coming.
But I graduated from high school in 2002, and it definitely wasn’t 24 years ago, lol!
Correction made!
What a gorgeous hat! Beautiful princess, luxe coat and hat. I love the contrast of the materials. Is the body of the coat and the crown of the hat made of shearling? It’s a perfect textural contrast. Love it.
Persian lamb with mink trim I think.
WOW! What a wonderful, wintry look! I recently found an old interview with her on Youtube, and she simply oozed charm and class. Still very elegant and lovely today, don’t you agree?
