When I visited the Automobile and Fashion Museum, I had no idea I would be getting my own personal look inside the closet of the Mistress Borghese (aka Mistress Maddie). Click here if you haven’t met the Mistress — fellow blogger, former and now sometime drag queen, and gifted designer. Of course, her closet is huge — just like his… personality.

Hahahahahahaha!
How very apt. Jx
Jon:
And there, of course, was so much more.
I love the hats, we should wear more hats, silly hats, frilly hats, impractical hats.
“We should all wear hats. Hat HATS HATS. And gloves. How I adored Paris”
David:
I love hats. But I don’t have a hat head. Only very specific styles and shapes look good on me. SG has a hat head.
Quite the collection here! Colourful, elegant and fun!
Those hat boxes!!!
Jim:
Yes, the hat boxes! I’d collect those.
I think it is interesting that a museum combines autos and fashion!
mcpersonalspace54:
I thought it was an odd combination until I saw it. Even custom car interiors by the same designer as the gown featured next to the car.
What a novel museum! I guess in a way, the design of cars is indeed a fashion statement!
That is amazing!
FANTASTIC!!!
sillygirl:
I plan to drag SG back there with me. I didn’t get enough time.
I love MM’s closet! Haha!
You’d look fabulous in the one with the feathers, fruit, and toucan… and it would prevent your head from sunburn.
Wicked Hamster:
I do need one to prevent my head from sunburn. But I don’t think the fruit one would suit me. (My face is too narrow.) I love that last one though… And the hands, and the chariot… oh, and those broad-brimmed.
So many hats, so little time.
Wicked Hamster:
And that was possibly less than half the collection. I don’t know how many exotic birds died for some of the other hats.
Out of the closet, into the streets!
Frank:
Imagine a gay Pride parade adorned with those hats!
We saw quite a few splendid hats on the Gay Pride March in London yesterday! Jx
Jon:
I’m envious. Next year, Torremolinos again. It’s not London, but it will have to do.
I think we’d enjoy Torremolinos Pride, too! – we only just missed it this year, it being such an early event (end May/early June).
Of course, the scale might be somewhat different. Jx
Love all those crazy hats!
Debra:
SO many more. Maybe next time.
Oooh, Maddie’s going to get all orgasmic! She loves a say something hat, and boy are these talking! This is a faux Maddie closet, though. I mean really, no marabou boas is a dead giveaway!
To answer your question, I was rather wet……
Deedles:
Oh, there were maribou boas. I just didn’t take pictures.
Maddie would be in Hat Heaven, and Pam Demic would rock a lot of those dresses!
Bob:
Yes, those are definitely Pam Demic dresses.
I love that hat with the super-wide brim! I could totally see myself wearing that, lounging on a Spanish beach. (My dermatologist would approve, even if no one else would.) Are those other hats supposed to have hands coming out the top? That’s very weird.
Steve:
Oh, yes, the hands are supposed to be there. So, the hands are weird but the chariot isn’t? Thanks to no hair for protection I’ve finally given in to wearing a hat. That brim would work for me, too.
What a fantastic collection! I expected Mistress Maddie’s closet to have more wigs, spectacular jewelry and empty gin bottles though…
Tundra…it like your in my closet…….
Mistress Borghese:
We all imagine ourselves in your closet. However, my response was that you have separate closets for wigs and jewelry, and house boys for empy gin bottles.
Tundra Bunny:
Oh, Mistress Maddie has separate closets for wigs and jewelry. And the house boys take care of the empty gin bottles.
What a bunch of fabulousness!
Judy C:
So much fun. I might even go back in the next couple of weeks.
The BFJ and I have random “Say Something Hat Days” and can never resist trying on hats and taking pics. We have ten years of such pics. Perhaps I should do a post of them some day.
Sassybear:
Ooh, I would love to see a post of your hat pics. And I would love to join you for a Say Something Hat Day.
OH……….I LOVE! I feel like a kid in a candy store! And your correct, I loved it all and you know I adore hats and have some huge wide brims….but I’m so in the mood to wear that third one down with the huge plumes………oHHHHHHH YES. I like to keep it casual. And loving all the hats. I really like and might need to swipe that “Carmen Miranda” looking hat with the feathers and plumes. FAAAAABULOUS!!!! I would have really enjoyed seeing this with you, although we may have been asked to leave, what with me trying to try things on and pilfer things out. Yes, I have seen Pose, and Elektra ‘s highjack of the costume wing of a museum. THANK YOU for the eye candy my friend!!!!
Mistress Borghese:
There were so many more hats at the museum. I couldn’t include them all, but I might have to share a few more at another time. Many that I don’t have photos of were nothing but plumes. Spectactular (poor birds).
