"You're so fine you blow my mind...Hey Mickey!"


Crafted from satin, feathers and feather-wheels, a bespoke pair of Mickey-Jones ears are to be worn by english rose Jasmine Guinness this season at Ascot - the premier place for hats.

Modern day 'Mad Hatter' slash milliner-aficionado Stephen Jones curated Hats: An Anthology during fashion week in February at my favourite haunt - the V&A.

Showcasing an array of spellbinding hats; Victorian crowns, Giles Deacon Pacman helmets, Isabella Blow's infamous Philip Treacy , it is clear that Stephen Jones is the last word on artistic  head-arrangements.

Inspired by Dita Von Teese to Dr. Martens, Stephen is never short of ideas and this one is utterly glamourous - the chicest of mice - Mickey Mouse.

To make an exciting entrance Jasmine will be in need of a convertible mustang or a shiny little Vespa to accommodate  such a ravishing pair (of ears) and I for one hope to see them on the pages of VOGUE as next season's must-have.
