New York's Easter Parade and Bonnet Festival Brought Out the Best Style of Spring

New York City welcomed a hint of spring, with a bit of warm sunshine that made this year's Easter Parade and Bonnet Festival a resounding success.

Fifth Avenue was filled with magnificent hat-wearers, strolling up and down Fifth Avenue with a charm and excitement that rivaled the children roaming the parks hunting with Easter eggs. A recurring group of milliners and costumed spectators exchanging nods with the more casual participants – who found creative ways to create their own grandiose impressions – was a particularly delight to see.
