At first glance, the hat makes a great Ascot statement thanks to those feathers! At closer view, however, you’ll see the base hat is made of felt – it’s an odd choice for summer and one that gives a less crisp and refined look than we saw on Queen Camilla’s feather covered hat today (her hat is sinamay). I think the lines of this hat are also at odds with the graphic lines on the neckline of the coat.

Princess Alexandra was included in today’s carriage procession at Royal Ascot. She repeated a hat in pale wheat hued sinamay, the brimmed design is overlaid in windowpane sinamay that gives a subtle lattice pattern to the piece. It is trimmed with a layered hatband, vibrant green sinamay flower and bows in the two colours. The green flower and bows is a new addition today.
