Philip Treacy is known as one of the most extraordinary designers of luxury hats for his eccentric style. Treacy who is Best known for his ornate hats that have topped the famous heads of Sarah Jessica Parker, Lady Gaga, and Princess Beatrice of York at 2011’s Royal Wedding (along with 39 other attendees) the latest pieces for Philip Treacy to add to his repertoire were components of Didit Hediprasetyo’s Fall 2012 Couture  Treacy show.

The Philip Treacy vibrancy of the orchid in the purple floral hat is eye-catching, but also complements the plum color of Hediprasetyo’s dress. At a closer glance, you can see how much detail went into making this hat, including the small jewels that are dusted onto the delicate petals of the orchid. Floral was a prominent theme in the Treacy show, but other Treacy designs reflected his signature eccentric work. The black contoured ribbon hat reminds me of the shape and texture of Princess Beatrice of York’s hat at the Royal Wedding last spring. The whimsical shape of the material in this hat resemble Treacy signature style. For more information, visit PhilipTreacy.co.uk.

Clash of the front-row Princesses at Paris Fashion Week

Princess Sirivannavari Nariratana of Thailand was unceremoniously snubbed by Princess Beatrice at the Saab show

 BY ANDY BLOXHAM

Princess Sirivannavari (Left) is a keen follower of fashion and the Saab show was her fifth at Paris Fashion Week alone. The princess, who is a fashion student in Thailand, is also an international standard badminton player and was recently ranked among the 20 most attractive young royals in the world by Forbes magazine. She has previously shown a collection of her own work in Paris and has appeared in daring outfits including a figure-hugging black dress slashed to her upper thigh matched with black lipstick. By contrast, Princess Beatrice’s (Right) choice of a hat for the Royal wedding which was likened to a pretzel, antlers, and a toilet seat was widely criticized by fashion experts. The silk “pretzel hat”, by milliner Philip Treacy, became a talking point on the internet before the princess took the joke in her stride and auctioned it for Unicef and Children in Crisis. The granddaughter of the Queen, who is 23, seems to be improving her kudos and has been praised for her fashion sense this week. - – Follow more on this story
