A fascinator or a hat?
The fascinator is a type of formal headpiece worn as an alternative to the hat. The fascinator can be dated as far back to when Marie Antoinette {1700s} fashioned ostrich feathers to decorate one’s hair. A little closer to the present day – In the 1950/1960’s ladies wore tiny hats perched on the side of one’s heads…otherwise known as cocktail hats. All types of fascinators. Not such a modern fashion statement as we may have thought!
The main difference of wearing a fascinator/headpiece in comparison to a hat is the fascinator is purely ornamental and worn using a clip, hair comb, headband, or elastic. They can be used to create bold or subtle statements for that important finish to your outfit, as a full stop is to a sentence! Perfect for ladies who are not quite so comfortable with wearing hats.
