How do we feel about Helena Bonham Carter's hat?

On one hand, I really kind of love it and its chic ragamuffinery. It reminds me of some Yohji Yamamoto hats from several years ago. However, I'm concerned it might be a little too...

What say you all?

I thought Swedish Chef with cables right away, then Oliver Twist in knits.

[Catherine]

On anyone else, I would love it. But I belong to the Haters of HBC club, which has a large and growing membership, even without her Harry Potter gig.

[Jenny]

I can't stop laughing at the dude checking out her butt. But, yes, a little cheffy.

[Juno]

swedish chef. Its just a tiny bot too big to be cute.

oong-a,boong-a,boo,kabish-ka,boo.......

I'm voting thumbs down. But I would.

[Anne]

Looks like Chef's deflated souffle in cables. Not one for my needles.

[Sil]

While I greatly admire Ms. B-C, her personal style is not one I would choose to emulate. My vote is no as is, but the idea is good. You can work that into shape.

[Natalie B]

that guy is totally checking out her bum!! hehehe... yeah, not really my kind of hat, but it looks comfy!

[Kathie]

Swedish Chef definitely. I think it's the oversized "brim". It might work with just an inch or two of the ribbing instead.

[Helen]

I've got to agree with Cath; what is up with that woman's sense (?) of fashion???

Hope you had a great Thanksgiving!

I just saw a Kim Hargreaves version of this hat that looks a little less chef hat/crazed muffin. Take a peek here:

Oh, on further inspection, the hat in the link I just sent is just a beret. It's kind of nice though.
