Breaking News: Camilla's Hat Was Recycled

We recently brought you coverage of the fashion of the royal wedding party including information about the Duchess of Cornwall's Anna Valentine outfit and Philip Treacy hat.  Now we can also tell you that Camilla's hat for the big day was not new!

Date:  June 2009
Place:  Ascot, England
Event:  Royal Ascot Horse Races

Seen here in 2009 wearing an outfit by Vivienne Westwood, the Duchess of Cornwall also wore that familiar-looking Philip Treacy topper.

She was picked to hand out a trophy, so she was sure to be photographed.  Funny how no one seems to have noticed yet that her hat was reused.  She even seems to have worn the same jewelry!  Well, good on her for saving a bit of money.  It went perfectly with her outfit on Kate and William's big day.

Tune into Fashionably Royal next time when we explore more Ascot fashions with a look back at 1981.  See you then!
