St Catherine's Day Parade
Time Out says
Thu Aug 30 2012
The Milliners Guild hosts its fifth annual homage to St. Catherine, the patron saint of hatmakers, with a promenade through midtown. Wearing a variety of handcrafted toppers such as fascinators, cloches and chapeaus, up to 50 guild members, clients and hat aficionados will gather at the Millinery Center Synagogue for the rabbi to bless the parade. From there, the group strolls to Bryant Park to mill about (geddit?) and pose for photos before heading to Grand Central Terminal. (R.S.V.P. at millinersguild.org if you'd like to join for the after-march dinner at the Grand Central Oyster Bar.) All are welcome—the only stipulation being you must wear a hat. Don’t try to pass muster in your new Brooklyn Nets cap; we recommend perusing the debonair wares at these New York hat shops first. Meet at Millinery Center Synagogue, 1025 Sixth Ave between 38th and 39th Sts.
