“I can carry along with my wanderlust journal a dairy of these colorful hats . There’s something about them that exudes elements of culture perhaps random splash of Colors , perhaps Faces , perhaps rawness of an inner child wanting to explore and more importantly a celebration of art. For one second it reminded me of a tour to a faraway Mexico or to the nearest Native Tribes in America. I concluded finally and thought to myself, this must be special, because it looks so unique, everyone can make a story of it. ,” I said to myself.

I couldn’t help but was stunned at the Scardale Fashion Night in Aug as the show started with the rhythm of the DJ who played music and ended up with a live body paint art on a model who popped out of the box on the street after the street fashion show showcased his handprinted wearable art. Philippe’s last act on showering petals on the road was an icing on the cake. The best part was Scarsdale was just Metro North away from New York. 

Wearing the hat in Brooklyn.

Where can you wear the hat?

  1. This is definitely an outdoorsy hat! I would love it wear on Brooklyn Bridge in New York or when I am fishing in Upstate New York or when I am watching a Dolly Parton’s show in Gatlinburg, Tennessee.
  2. Pairing the hat is easy! Because there are so many painted colors and it will go so well with different shades of dresses / leggings. However, I would recommend pairing it with something more casual than formal because of the nature of the hat.
  3. Small head like mine? No problem . If you have a small head like mine, a small hat would look great!
  4. Hide the mess underneath! Got unkempt hair? A hat is an ideal tool to make it all go under.
  5. This is more a Spring/Summer hat than a winter hat although it might look good in dull winters too!
  6. His hats are named Traveller, Rainforests, Hope, Fiesta etc, it’s all the celebratory names and styles that makes us feel so happy go lucky.

Here are some pictures from the event and some styles that I absolutely loved. I got to try a few hats myself too 🙂 and if you like them, you would love to have them in your closet from his online shop.
