John Candy wears a hat similar to this in Uncle Buck. There's a line in the movie where he says something like..."Just the sight of it makes some people angry.."
bw: Deerstalker-type caps (like the one Randy Parker wore in "A Christmas Story") aren't as onerous as Kors' hats.
You'd have to hit me with a tranquilizer dart, tie up my heavily-medicated body with some thick gauge rope, and put that loony cap on my head in order to photograph me wearing one.
Brooke: Good question. I can't blame this one males designers because even women designers concoct ridiculous outfits.
I think it's because inherently males are driven to eschew anything that isn't comfortable and functional. For years I complained that guy socks were thicker and more comfortable than those for women.
I hate to say it, but women are more likely to be driven to eschew comfort & function for vanity. The more eyeballs go their way, the better.
Elmo... funny! That hat is hideous and leaning towards hitonious. It would be full on hitonious if it had the words Yes We Did across the front of it. :-)

It's funny, the deerstalker-type caps (or, 50's kids' winter hats) are big in urban schools right now. Just not in orange fluff.

cube - I like it! Perfect for the Illinois weather.
Um... I'll stick with my jeans and tee shirts, thanks...
How come we never see guys in such ridiculous get-ups?

I'm mad now.

But can it sing and dance?
Elmo does.

wonder how many 1970 shag carpets had to die to create that thing?!?
Pinky: If I saw somebody wearing a freakishly large neon orange furry cap, my first reaction would be to laugh.
Caz: Remember Tickle Me Elmo? ;-)
nanc: lol! I hadn't thought of
burnt orange shag carpet and avocado kitchen appliances in a long time.
Elmo... funny!

lmboooooooooooo aw all orangey and stuff!
JD: That would most definitely fit the hitonious category. Hitonious with a capital 'H'.
Woman: All orangey and... unwearable by any sane person ;-)
