ABC Wednesday—F is for "fedoras"


Maybe it was the Mad Men influence, but I see more guys 

in hats these days.  Haven't seen a woman wearing 
white gloves in about 50 years though. Remember them? 
I still have a pair of white kid gloves that I wore 
when I was a (very proper, apparently) little girl.

  1. Oh, those white gloves. I would always see them on Sundays on the neighbors on the way to church.

    And those fedoras. Just look at Frank without and with.

    These days, that is when businessmen remember to wear them, fedoras like that can be real handy to prevent desk workers from getting sunstroke.

    Not too sure about the colored fedoras. Might need a few more accessories.

  3. Oh, yes, I remember the gloves, too. A group of which I was a member hosted a fashion show of sorts of dresses through the ages. We had displays of clothing members shared. And some of us did show up in gloves we had stashed.

  4. I loved the fashions of the sixties! I would recognize them if they came back in and have noticed the colours the last few years...neon green and other brights! Love the fedoras!

  6. I remember a pair of white gloves from when I was a little girl too. Now, however - among my summer hats I have a white one looking very much like those in your photo...
