About Bride Chic
Hats are one way to top off your wedding hairstyle & total bridal look, veering away from the mainstream and into the realm of style savvy bride. These picture hats by Catherine Alhinc are stunning. Did you know picture hats are the most classic hat for daytime formals?
Wide brimmed and typically constructed out of straw or horsehair, picture or wide-brimmed hats are sometimes swathed in netting and organza. They conjure up images of croquet parties at Jay Gatsby’s and all those 1930s movies situated in garden party chic. Christian Dior also made use of the picture hat in the 1950s, pairing these statement pieces with suits and hourglass silhouettes. And speaking of silhouettes, picture hats go great with most wedding dress silhouettes, especially ball gowns. The wide brim balances the volume in the skirt.
Would you consider donning a picture hat on your wedding day?
