Memo to fashion show staff: Okay, this was a rookie mistake. The order form for this model’s hat was supposed to say size 6 3/4, but thanks to poor math skills, we got a size 634!
Didn’t anyone notice something odd when you dressed the poor model? Didn’t you notice that the hatbox it came in was the size of an above-ground swimming pool?
And while I’m on the subject of this fiasco, obviously it’s time to put guard rails on the end of that fashion runway.

- Posted by daneWhat, this isn’t a Galliano?! I bet he slipped backstage and stuck this huge hat on her head! He’s such a wacky prankster! He wants her to trip and fall. I heard a rumor he was saying very softly, under his breath, as he balanced the enormous hat on her head, “I see London, I see France…”

- Posted by John C AbellMy wife said she wants a hat like that for when it rains.
- Posted by Random NumbersValentino must be getting hard of hearing, Katinka thought: she hadn’t asked him if she could take an enormous pith.
- Posted by CharleneI’m a big Valentino fan. I even have one of his handbags; his shoes are to die for but what in the hell was he thinking when he made this hat?: “the world will love me regardless how stupid my collection looks”???

- Posted by Lady WeaselI like dancing on the table when I’m drunk. I like wearing a lampshade on my head when I’m drunk. I like eating the entire left-hand side of the Denny’s menu when I’m drunk. When I’m sober… not so much.
