Royal Ascot 2013

I have always have a thing for hats, caps, headpieces or whatever you can put on your head. I remember that when I started studying Fashion Design my goal was to be a Millinery Designer like Philip Treacy or Stephen Jones but at some point reality hit me and I realize that to be a hat maker I will have to live in England and made just a few amazingly absurd hats per year... Not profitable.

But anyways, whener I made a collection or a design or even a sketch there's always a Millinery element in it. And maybe that's my muse and number one love is always and forever Isabella Blow. 

Royal Ascot is a famous English racecourse related to the British Royal Family, which on Ladies' Day is the perfect excuse to find a good hat and dress up. Here are some photos from the event chosen by me for many reason (fashion, style, awkwardness, etc).

I guess that British do it better!
