"Wearing a hat versus not wearing a hat is the difference
between looking adequate and looking your best."
~ Martha Sliter
"You can flirt with a fan in your hand. . .
But a woman can really flirt with a hat."
~ Dolores Foster
"Women wearing hats are at once sophisticated and whimsical....Their faces are younger and softer. They carry themselves differently, daintily, like deer. Their voices flutter a bit...even when they are talking about things like money and power and work,
even when it's clear they're very much in charge of their lives."
~ "O" Magazine
"A hat is a shameless flatterer, calling attention to an escaping curl, a tawny braid, a sprinkling of freckles over a pert nose, directing the eye to what is most unique about a face. Its curves emphasize a shining pair of eyes, a lofty forehead; its deep brim accentuates the pale tint of a cheek, creates an aura of prettiness, suggests a mystery that awakens curiosity in the onlooker."
~ Jeanine Larmoth

"Hats are a great antidote to what is going on.
It is really their purpose to put a happy face on a sad world."
~ Stephen Jones
"I myself have 12 hats,
and each one represents a different personality."
~ Margaret Atwood
"A hat is to be stylish in,
to glow under, to flirt beneath,
to make all others seem jealous over,
and to make all men feel masculine.
A piece of magic is a hat."~ Martha Sliter
"That is the thing about hats. . .
They are extravagant and full of humour
and allow for a sense of costume,
but in a lighthearted way."
~ Stephen Jones
"Go Ahead and Bloom"
"When you wear a hat, it is like medicine for the soul.
You cannot hide in a hat; you will be noticed,
especially by men.
To men, you become a lady when you don a hat
One who they rush to open doors for.
To women, you become an inspiration,
reminding them that they have a closet full of hats
they have not had the courage to wear."
