It appears we haven’t seen the last of the infamous Dumb Donald hat (from the hit 70’s cartoon ‘Fat Albert.’) I’m not exactly sure what the benefit of this full-coverage hat would provide—that is, unless you have chronic bed head, an aversion to sunlight, or a really ugly face.

These images of hats found at Trend de la Creme include designs by Narciso Rodriguez, Central Saint Martins, Jean-Charles de Castelbajac, Giles Deacon, Claydies, and You Must Create.

Given today's politically correct climate, I can't imagine the show would make it to see the light of day -- that is, unless they changed the characters names to 'Weight Challenged Albert' and 'Mentally Disabled Donald.' But, political correctness aside, his signature eyehole look lives on in 2009. (trenddelacreme)
