Orange hat…..

11 replies

Bestevercatmum · 06/06/2025 10:23

Anybody like a challenge?
I’m looking for a bright orange hat to complete a wedding guest outfit. Preferably straw or similar, size M/L (it seems I have a large head 🫤)
I don’t want a typical “ wedding guest” type hat, but something more casual/modern/quirky.
I might consider a cream/beige colour if I can wrap an orange silk scarf around it.
Been on Vinted (bought 2 which were both too small) and the others on there are also small sizes.
Don’t want to spend much as the outfit was expensive and I’ll only wear it once. Maybe £30 max.
Any suggestions gratefully received!

Hmm, I’ll take a look but think that might be a bit too casual? I was maybe thinking more Fedora style? Thank you anyway x

I thought a '20s-style cloche hat with curled up brim might be nice...

This doesn't quite have the full curled up brim, but it's quirky and orange and the internal diameter is quoted.

Wearing this (no comments or opinions about wearing this colour to a wedding please - that would be a whole different thread!!)

@StressyMessyJess

I love this and think it might work

I was going to suggest V V Rouleaux as they sell plain hats and millinery supplies in their haberdashery shop as well as having a bespoke atelier but I am slightly horrified at their current prices 😳

Their trimmings, flowers and ribbons are reasonably priced if you fancy buying a cheap hat and trimming it yourself.

Fantastic outfit 👏

@angelinawasrobbed

Thank you, although I think it has divided opinions as a wedding guest outfit!
Each to their own I say 😂
