We’ve all been there. You find an outfit you adore, try it on and find it doesn’t suit you. The trick is to minimise your imperfections rather than accentuate them.The same principle applies to choosing a hat. For example, if you are tall with a long face, it’s a good idea to avoid a narrow, tall fascinator. Otherwise you could end up looking like one of the Queen’s guards. You would be better off with a hat or fascinator with a wider brim.
Use your face shape to your advantage; be it oval, long, round, square or heart-shaped. The table featured here is a guide to the style of hat suited to different face shapes (www.theteafortwo.com).
