Top It Off With Ellen Christine: Our Suggestions for The Royal Wedding-Kate Middleton, We Hope You Are Reading Whom You Know!

The champagne and blush feathered fascinator would be perfect for a dinner with the Queen

The smallish cocktail hat in straw and black silk camellias would be perfect with a suit, for another royal engagement with William, or lunch with her girlfriends
The deep red Armida fascinator, with quills is gorgeous for Kate's complexion.  the red would stand out at a state parade

The "Diana" cocktail hat is a favorite shape of the Royals: introduces by Queen Eugenie in the 1800's, this little shape showed up on Margaret Thatcher's wedding day, trimmed in blue ostrich plumes.  In the 1980's it made it's come-back on Diana's head.  this would be a perfect addition to Kate's millinery wardrobe.

All four of these pieces are available by request at The Met Opera Shop as part of The Met Collection: The Divas, by Ellen Christine
