My sweet, funny, otherworldly friend, Maryam Keyhani hosted a hat party today to celebrate her latest collection of whimsical, straw toppers. It was held in the magical garden of a grand Rosedale home, with pink champagne on silver trays and boaters strewn from trees. A host of animals –– two goats, three ducks, a pig and the largest rabbit I’ve ever seen –– roamed around in the late morning sun. Maryam looked like Marie Antoinette, only with a straw hat in the shape of a cake on her head. What was wonderful to see, was how each guest transformed as she popped a hat on her head. “Why do you think I feel like 22 women,” laughed Maryam, who is never without something sublime on her head.
