“Wearing a hat is like wearing

a Band-Aid on your nose.
People don’t look at your face—

they look at the Band-Aid.

When you take it away,
they can’t recognize you.

Some people don’t recognize

me without a hat.”

T H E TA K E AWAY
If you’re going for
an all-dark look, you
don’t need to stick
to black-on-black.
In fact, layering in
navy, hunter, or gray
is a great way to
add depth and sub-
tlety to an outfit
(implying depth and
subtlety in the
wearer, of course).
