LONDON — The eye-popping hat worn by Princess Beatrice at Britain’s royal wedding is to be auctioned to raise money for charity, Buckingham Palace said yesterday.
The famous creation, which some said looked like antlers, will be sold on
The hat was the handiwork of Britain’s Philip Treacy for the April 29 nuptials of Prince William and Catherine Middleton.
The hat has sparked a Facebook fan page called “Princess Beatrice’s ridiculous Royal Wedding hat,’’ and one computer-altered picture showed President Obama and his national security team all wearing the hat as they watched the commando raid on Osama bin Laden’s compound in Pakistan.![]()
