We do know that the last three are definitely photoshopped right?

I didn't even know these existed until now. I don't think I've ever seen one in real life. After seeing pics though, I'll say they look completely retarded.

I personally think most all of the hats look extraordinarily silly, but if they enjoy it...meh. As for guys wearing fascinator hats, um....

Here are a few I found especially outrageous. I don't get it, lol......









check out her fingernails too. yikes.

These hats aren't considered Fascinators. The fascinators are generally smaller and look more like a headclip/head band type thing.

Right you are, dj. Fascinators are distinct from hats. I have corrected my initial post to provide a proper definition and hopefully avoid further confusion:

Quote:
"A fascinator is a form of headgear that doesn't hug the natural contours of your bonce, as most hats still do, but is a sort of artistic installation attached by glue, hatpins or some other piece of milliner's artifice." Q: When is a Royal Ascot hat not a hat? | Michael Gove - Times Online

"The general theory is that a fascinator is neither a hat nor a feather but something somewhere in between, which, for the benefit of the more practical- minded, won't keep your hair dry if it rains." Royal Ascot Diary - Telegraph
Let us consider a previous example of a fascinator provided in this thread:

Now, our resident artist's impression of a fascinator for Simon *would* qualify as a fascinator...a headpiece headpiece, if I may be so bold. Perched upon Simon's forehead and presumably affixed by glue, that jaunty fascinator would not keep his hair dry if it rains.

Below is an example of a fascinator reminiscent of Simon's so that all can practice distinguishing a fascinator from its larger cousin, the hat. Notice, if you will, that the base of this fascinator is much smaller than that of a typical hat. I believe this fascinator to be...a jellyfish:

FASCINATOR:

One commentator had this to say about Princess Beatrice's fascinator:

Quote:
Allow me to raise my glass in a toast and say, I am indeed fascinated as I gaze at your fascinator, and my mind begins to drift…

BEATRICE TO HAT SHOP ATTENDANT: Do you have any hats that will subconsciously alert men to my fertility, maybe by reminding them of their gym class diagram of the female reproductive organs?

BEATRICE TO DESIGNER: Can you design something that allows me to send a subtle message that I disapprove of the marriage, but in the politest way possible?

DESIGNER: How about a toilet seat, but with a fancy ribbon around it?

Princess Beatrice’s Fascinator « The Good Greatsby
Others describe it as "an octopus in attack mode." http://news.softpedia.com/news/Princ...e-198106.shtml



I admire her moxy:

I love Babybel cheese! And Gouda is covered in red paraffin wax, isn't it? It's definitely not red on the inside.

Some of those fascinators and the hats that have been posted are ridiculous. Creative, yes, but some of them are just ugly.

Princess Beatrice wore way too much eye makeup. She looks like a raccoon.
