The Fedora Goes Fab

May 17th, 2008 at 11:33 am · DrHGuy · 2 Comments

As is clear from recent posts,1 DrHGuy is quite taken by the headgear Leonard Cohen has worn in the opening concerts of the 2008 Tour.2

Pretty (Fabulous) In Pink

While scanning hats in this category, DrHGuy came upon a pink ladies’ fedora, a discovery that, of course, inevitably led to thoughts of the exquisite Fabiola.

While DrHGuy lacks the hubris to advise Fabiola on any fashion issue, let alone suggest she don millinery that would obscure even a portion of her signature beehive coiffure, he also proves unable to resist employing the fabulous one as a model for the referenced chapeau.

Alas, while the result is all that could be hoped this side of heaven, it is inconclusive as a measure of the attractiveness of the hat simply because Fabiola makes everything she wears3 look good.

Credit Due Department: Fabiola resides, when not modeling for the Heck of a Haberdashery, at Celebrate Your Inner Fabiola! (which is a different cyber-universe altogether than the one occupied by Mary, Fabiola’s alter ego at View From A Farmhouse Window)

    I, Fabiola, am beyond any words. Except gratitude, of course. And the word laughter. Fabiola declares DrHguy to be an amazing man.
