A fascinator is a woman’s miniature hat that is typically worn at an angle. It can be attached to a headband or have hidden clips to keep it in place on the hair. Intended to “fascinate,” they often feature whimsical and over-the-top designs. They were seen in large numbers at the royal wedding of William and Kate.
