New York City may have its Easter Parade , but NO ONE does hats
like the Brits. Our first two photos are of Florence Claridge on
Ladies Day at Ascot: she's known for a quarter century of
outrageous hats at that British Bastion of Hat Heaven.

The second two photos are Philip Treacy hats done for
Alexander McQueen ( both Brits, of course).
