Explain: Fur Trapper Hats

The Gawker game is on again, and this time here’s the challenge: explain why Fur Trapper Hats are the hot new thing. Weirdly, the Fashionista team was wondering about this last night – not only were the hats all over the streets, we actually spotted them on the runway at Charlotte Ronson and Luella! Why [...]
