Flower Headpieces - Couture Fashion Week

Wow - you can see why I love flower making - so many possibilities.  This would be amazing for Spring Carnival Racing in September in Australia.  Us Queensland girls love  big statement headwear with lots of colour and nothing too sublte!

They were part of a presentation held at the Shangri-La hotel as part of Couture Fashion Week.

A pretty little hat at Ascot?

I was trawling about the internet and came across this amazing photo of a groovy lady at  the Ascot Races in England last year.    I absolutely adore her pink gloves.

I wonder if a hat can ever be considered too big? The photo does not show her handbag - I wonder if she went with something equally as subtle.

Perhaps I am underestimating the versatility of this headpiece  - it could double as a bed swag or a picnic blanket.
