That Ruby Rose! In 2011, I was like, "This person is some kind of DJ in Australia!" And now she's our erstwhile Batwoman. I'm not sure if this is a hat, or some kind of skull shield attached to novelty glasses, but it sure looks annoying as hell to wear. I wonder if she still owns it. She could have gone as herself for Halloween. ## 2007: Melissa George ![](https://static.gofugyourself.com/uploads/2020/11/2007-melissa-george54801_77725433-compressed-1604553347.jpg) This hat is fine, but the dress looks like someone in Marie Antoinette's court ate it after all the cake was gone. ## 2009: Zara Phillips ![](https://static.gofugyourself.com/uploads/2020/11/2009-zara-80362_92622646-640x960-1604553353.jpg) The best part about this is, being a royal and being Zara, it's POSSIBLE that is not a painting on the wall behind her but in fact just stuff springing forth from her head. I do not believe that is TRUE, but it's BELIEVABLE. ## 2010: Brynne Edelsten ![](https://static.gofugyourself.com/uploads/2020/11/2010-brynne-edelsten-96231_106430750-640x974-1604553360.jpg) Someone in Australia can explain her better, but Brynne was at the time a socialite married to some rich dude named Geoffrey, and therefore able to buy several coats of spray tan to go with her massive peacock feathers. ## 2011: Brynne Edelsten ![](https://static.gofugyourself.com/uploads/2020/11/2011-brynne-131011211-640x960-1604553366.jpg) I've never before seen someone buy a fasciator to go with their flirty nightie. ## 2013: Brynne Edelsten ![](https://static.gofugyourself.com/uploads/2020/11/2013-brynne-186898481-1604553489.jpg) That's not a hat; that's a state fair consolation corsage. ## 2014: Geoffrey Edelsten and Gabi Grecko ![](https://static.gofugyourself.com/uploads/2020/11/melbourne-cup-2014-horse-race-spl881686_013-1604553521.jpg) Geoffrey, in the yellow here, split with Brynne and got with Gabi here instead -- who is here the same age Brynne was when THEY got married. Don't be such a DiCaprio, Geoffrey. Gabi's hat is great but this whole thing feels less like something she's doing for race day and more like some deep life performance art that she takes very seriously. ## 2011: J. Alexander ![](https://static.gofugyourself.com/uploads/2020/11/2011-130726898-compressed-1604553374.jpg) I am concerned about the weight imbalance here. ## 2011: Dita von Teese ![](https://static.gofugyourself.com/uploads/2020/11/2011-130729541-compressed-1604553390.jpg) Dita REALLY loves a tall, flat hat, as if she bought a regular one and just turned it vertical. There's this... ## 2013: Dita ![](https://static.gofugyourself.com/uploads/2020/11/2013-186897917-1604553465.jpg) ... and then this, which I guess she filled with flowers first. I LIKE both of them. She just has a type. ## 2011 Kerri Anne Kennerly ![](https://static.gofugyourself.com/uploads/2020/11/2011-kerriannewrightkennerley130745932-compressed-1604553396.jpg) Psst, Kerri Anne, your napkin goes in your lap. ## 2011: Rebecca Judd ![](https://static.gofugyourself.com/uploads/2020/11/2011-rebeccajudd131054393-compressed-1604553405.jpg) Was EVERYONE into napkin-folding seminars this year? ## 2012: Rose Byrne ![](https://static.gofugyourself.com/uploads/2020/11/2012-155593668-compressed-1604553415.jpg) Rose must have realized too late that she completely forgot the "hat" portion of affairs, and just made a barette in five minutes. ## 2012: Mischa Barton ![](https://static.gofugyourself.com/uploads/2020/11/2012-155651367-compressed-1604553423.jpg) The hat embodiment of a wisp of smoke rising from a cigarette. ## 2013: Lleyton Hewitt and Bec Cartwright ![](https://static.gofugyourself.com/uploads/2020/11/2013-bec-lleyton-186900653-1604553481.jpg) And another! ## Lleyton Hewitt and Bec Cartwright ![](https://static.gofugyourself.com/uploads/2020/11/melbourne-cup-2014-horse-race-spl881655_005-1604553512.jpg) Is this too much neon, or too much spray tan? Or both? ## 2012: Sophie Monk ![](https://static.gofugyourself.com/uploads/2020/11/2012-monk-155608378-compressed-1604553432.jpg) In space, they hadn't learned about colorful shoes yet. ## 2013: Lauren Phillips ![](https://static.gofugyourself.com/uploads/2020/11/2013-186893793_10-1604553450.jpg) This looks like Robin Hood shot her updo with an arrow that had a message attached. ## 2013 ![](https://static.gofugyourself.com/uploads/2020/11/2013-186894288_10-1604553458.jpg) This is a random racegoer, but it's such a phenomenal photo. And hat. ## 2013: Danielle Spencer ![](https://static.gofugyourself.com/uploads/2020/11/2013-186898399-1604553473.jpg) Danielle, once married to Russell Crowe, did okay with her dress, boringly with her shoes, and then pulled a shocker with her hat's color scheme. ## 2014: Danielle Spencer ![](https://static.gofugyourself.com/uploads/2020/11/melbourne-cup-2014-horse-race-spl881712_001-1604553529.jpg) Much more coordinated, but she really needs to invest in some new pumps. ## 2013: Kate Upton ![](https://static.gofugyourself.com/uploads/2020/11/2013-spl644461_001-1604553497.jpg) This is less of a hat design and more of a tulle tangle. ## 2013: Coco Rocha ![](https://static.gofugyourself.com/uploads/2020/11/2013-spl644550_001-1604553504.jpg) As usual, Coco is posing the shit out of it, but the hat looks like some wacky Minnie Mouse tribute. ## 2014: Renae Ayris ![](https://static.gofugyourself.com/uploads/2020/11/melbourne-cup-2014-horse-race-spl881717_032-1604553537.jpg) Her brain leak is so beautiful. ## 2014: Kate Peck ![](https://static.gofugyourself.com/uploads/2020/11/melbourne-cup-2014-horse-race-spl881755_003-1604553545.jpg) Is she... wearing a thong on her head? ## 2014 flock to the Birdcage to celebrate Melbourne Cup Day ![](https://static.gofugyourself.com/uploads/2020/11/melbourne-cup-2014-horse-race-spl881763_021-1604553554.jpg) The man in this shot is a hat designer, I believe, and his head looks suitably perilous. ## 2014: Maria Venuti ![](https://static.gofugyourself.com/uploads/2020/11/melbourne-cup-2014-horse-race-spl881763_034-1604553563.jpg) Maria is a singer, and I am pretty sure this entire thing was semi-homemade at 3 a.m. ## Kate Peck, 2018 ![](https://static.gofugyourself.com/uploads/2020/11/shutterstock_editorial_9959539o-1604553571.jpg) This hat is literally what my brain feels like right now. ## 2019 ![](https://static.gofugyourself.com/uploads/2020/11/shutterstock_editorial_10468428a-1604553581.jpg) This is a random person from last year, entering what I believe is a fashion contest. It looks like it's a floral interpretation of The Upside Down or something. ![](https://static.gofugyourself.com/uploads/2020/11/shutterstock_editorial_10468428b-1604553592.jpg) I hope these are also pinatas. ![](https://static.gofugyourself.com/uploads/2020/11/shutterstock_editorial_10468428f-1604553605.jpg) And this is clearly the woman who has been presumed dead for years and is biding her time until she throws off her disguise and reveals herself to her now-remarried partner. [Oh, What the Hell, Let's Look at More HatsBECAUSE.![](https://storage.ghost.io/c/bf/b9/bfb99790-924d-4e41-a7e6-5e3c6e04fe57/content/images/static-gofugyourself-com/uploads/2020/11/2011-130729492-compressed-1604553382.jpg)](https://go-fug-yourself.ghost.io/oh-what-the-hell-lets-look-at-more-hats-11-2020/)
