Celebs Love a Good Pork Pie

[Doh!]

I didn't see this posted elsewhere. A short article from the current Entertainment Weekly on celebrities sporting pork pies.

Keaton's is still the best.

Neat article!

Duckie Dale from Pretty in Pink (a guilty pleasure of mine)--love that character (and his clothes).

Thanks for posting! I agree, Keaton wins with Sinatra a close second. Though Tom Waits always wears hats with a certain sense of authenticity. Unlike Fergie, who makes it look like a fashion accessory du jour.

Umm...is Joey McIntyre's hair coming out through the top of his hat? Because it looks like it. Man, if that's the case, makes you wonder what brand of awesome hat he's wearing. Must be one o' dem new fangled thangs.

 

[Feraud]

Celebs aren't the only one who like 'em.
I just bought a Stetson porkpie and will try to get a few pics up tonight.

 

[Doh!]

I myself own a gray Jaxon Monk. It's my "everyday" hat in the fall.

What is the best style hat to bash like this? Just any stingy brim or something with a little more brim? Any help is appreciated.

Another celebrity porkpie

Another celebrity porkpie

I was just scrolling down to the bottom to post how I always think its disappointing that Popeye Doyle's pork pie never seems to make it onto these lists. Thanks for saving me the trouble, Feraud.

 

[Feraud]

Just doin' my job.

 

[BegintheBeguine]

Possibly fits the definition of celeb

This dude

has many hats, all custom made.
Always nice to see Popeye.
This gentleman might be what we're all waiting to see.

 

[Doh!]

How the heck E.W. skipped Popeye Doyle is unforgivable!

I mean, Fergie? New Kids on the Block??

 

[Dinerman]

Does that porkpie have a pencil curl to the brim? Homburg with a porkpie crown?

 

[BegintheBeguine]

Difficult to find a good picture online of Mr. Young.

It looks like it does indeed, but of course I included Lester Young as he is the subject of Charles Mingus' classic "Goodbye Porkpie Hat."

hm. I'm not even sure that his hat even has a top on it???

Sorta like he was inspired by this look...

Doc T., take a gander at this thread. Might be what you're looking for.

[dundeedavie]

got to admit my hat of choice is either the pork pie with upturned brim or the newsboy (8-piece) cap

[Feraud]

While not a celebrity, here is my Stetson porkpie

 

[bolthead]

Wow.....

That is one sweet Pork, Feraud....I'm way jealous.

I own 2 to date, one that I made into a Porkpie a Knox, that you all seen by now....I recently bid on another (Dobbs) but that's still up in the air yet.
