I am sporting my '80s race hat' as my housemate has dubbed it. If I were to attend Ascot during the 1980s, my brim would be of ample size. It's very 80s with it's oversize velvet bow and its equally oversize brim (and circumference, I never thought I had a small head until today). The largeness of it all means that in the wind I had to clutch it desperately and due to it's molded felt-ness I had to squirrel it away in my rucksack when I walked home in the rain. I've enjoyed wearing it though, I've felt like a high schooler from an 1980s movie all day, one of the fashionable clique!
I've tried to tone down the 80s a little to avoid looking like a period piece, but my longline cardigan would suggest otherwise. I'm really enjoying longline flowy cover-ups like this, perfect for computer cluster temperature regulation. And they go well with the wide shape of my dress.
