Seeing in their Easter bonnets
Hundreds hopped to the returning
Easter Parade and Bonnet Festival
Sunday in front of St. Patrick’s Cathedral.
On April 17, the egg-stravagant Easter
Hat parade came again after being canceled
and then severely hampered due to
the COVID-19 pandemic. The sun shone
down upon East 51st Street and Fifth Avenue,
transforming the roadway into a
fashion runway and a hat hunt where photographers
rushed to snap the eye-catching
outfits.
The young and old alike strolled 47th
Street to 59th Street with hats blooming
with flowers, bonnets rolling with eggs, and
all styles in between.
For some this was a brand-new experience,
but for others it was a return to a
long-term tradition.
