Autumn 2025

Updated November 11th.

Fall leaves. Changing colors. Rich hues. Dramatic tones. Sigh. At Hattingdon Horses we certainly enjoy the depth of beauty that is the Autumn season.

To create vibrant hats to go along with those sentiments, Vivian went all the way back to the beginning of Hattingdon to find something special that would inspire — and she did.

Look at these fabulous Lennox top hats.


When asked about the hats’ histories, Vivian said that the Lennox hat on the left was her first attempt at a Fall hat some years ago. The other Fall hat, on the right, arrived years later and became a big favorite, just as the earlier one did. Aren’t they lovely?

Thank you for visiting with us. Before we go, how about a poem by Robert Frost. Sigh. Love it.

Nothing Gold Can Stay

by ROBERT FROST

Nature’s first green is gold,
Her hardest hue to hold.
Her early leaf’s a flower;
But only so an hour.
Then leaf subsides to leaf.
So Eden sank to grief,
So dawn goes down to day.
Nothing gold can stay.

Thank you for spending time with us. — Love, Hattingdon & Co.

Asher then and now

Hello!

Fall began officially on Saturday, September 23rd. We are watching and waiting for the gorgeous colours it brings. It is still a little too warm yet where we are.

We decided to go ahead and get into the spirit of things with two darling Fall inspired top hats. Hattingdon adores top hats.

First up is the original Asher top hat that Vivian created in 2008. How fun. Anyone remember this? We love the deep wine red she chose and the golden hatband. And all that leaf detailing! Wonderful.

Ten years later, Vivian decided to reimagine the Asher design, giving it a whole new look. The colours she chose are delicious. The rich golden yellow, vibrant orange and rich brown are wonderful together. What a stylish look!

Hope you enjoyed them, and they gave you “a hatful of smiles”. See you again here soon.

With love, Hattingdon & Co.

Autumn

by Vivian Grant

Hattingdon just had to have a new hat and decided on an Autumn inspired one (although she already has the darling Asher Top Hat). Here it is, named a just a bit predictably (smile) . . . Autumn.

We have two versions of her new Fall leaf crown hat. Which one do you prefer? The one beginning with the gold leaf or green leaf?
