The Most Ridiculous Royal Hats Ever

Centered on horse racing, the event is a chance for the public to show off their fashion sense in the company of British royalty. However, in line with traditional British humor, many women go over the top when it comes to the compulsory hats. 

The four-day social and fashion event garners an audience of around 300,000 people each year, including the royal family.

While many opt for sleek and subtle hats, others want to leave a lasting impression by donning truly ridiculous headpieces. Here are some of the worst hats ever pictured at the Royal Ascot. 

The woman paired a stylish red dress with a hat that resembles a soccer net, which has an English flag at its center. 

Undoubtedly, this particular hat garnered the attention of various people at the racecourse for its unique design. 

One woman’s apparent love for Italian food took things a step further as she was pictured wearing a hat that portrays a plate of spaghetti Bolognese. 

If looked at in the wrong light, this hat could be mistaken for the tentacles of an octopus. 

Maybe that’s what inspired this unusual hat worn by a woman at the Royal Ascot event. 

While fairly realistic, we don’t think she won any fashion contests that day. 

The woman, dressed in a well-fitted red dress, accompanied her outfit with a hat inspired by an English soccer player. It’s safe to say the Brits love their game. 

This one belongs to the latter category. This woman meticulously crafted her hat to take on the shape of a small airplane.

No doubt, as the prestigious event continues over the next few years, we’ll see people continue to wear ridiculous and downright disturbing hats at the Royal Ascot racecourse.
