Last Monday, Princess Beatrice was photographed in an embellished black headband from Modo Band Collective
On Saturday, the Swedish King wore his brown fedora to the Swedish Grand National horse races
The following new millinery designs caught my eye this week (see the comments for more):
Fantastic photos from the 18th birthday celebration of Princess Ingrid Alexandra of Norway
Great interview with the Duchess of Cornwall in Vogue UK for her 75th birthday
Wonderful photo of the Duke of Cambridge and his children released for Father’s Day.

Stunning yin yang koi design! And the Filipa Cardoso is gorgeous. This would be a good one for Camilla.
Very fun photo of the Cambridges. And the party in Norway was spectacular!
That cream hat by millineryjill is fantastic! Thank you HatQueen for all your work last week plus today’s post. It must be quite the busy week for you and I appreciate it so much! It was sooooo nice to celebrate “Hat Christmas” again! Are we going to vote on the best Ascot hat?
You’re welcome. It was a busy week but so great to see Royal Ascot back at full capacity.
Alas, no, polls were dropped on Royal Hats several years ago. It’s impossible to remove the factor of royal popularity from them and they no longer felt like a constructive part of our discussion here.
Yes, thank you very much, Hat Queen, for the amazing coverage you gave us from Royal Ascot. It was much appreciated. Do you have a personal favourite Royal Hat from the week?
That’s a tough question! If we are talking hats alone, the standouts for me were Princess Beatrice’s straw halo bandeau on Day 1 and the Countess of Wessex’s blue saucer on Day 2. I also think that Zara Tindall won the battle of the boaters this round!
Thank you Hat Queen. That’s really interesting. I loved all of those especially the blue saucer.
This yellow boater is gorgeous. Love it.
Here are more hats that caught my eye last week
Such a nifty everyday type hat!
I saw this earlier this week and fell in love. The colors are dynamite and the style sensational! What a design!
This is super – I love it.
