Take a Perfect Selfie With This Pink Sequin Sombrero

There are many tools to take the perfect selfie. The selfie stick, selfie brush, and makeup — Dior and Pat McGath both have selfie foundations — are all apparatuses specifically made to capture a perfect portrait. But now, there’s a selfie sombrero to fill the gaping hole in the market. Oh, and it’s one-of-a-kind couture, too.

The oversized pink sequined wide-brimmed hat was made in collaboration with Acer and fashion designer Christian Cowan-Sanluis. The “Selfie Hat” has an Iconia A1- 840 tablet attached to the edge so the wearer can take photos of themselves from 360-degrees.

"Whilst slowly moving the screen from left to right, not only does the selfie sombrero help the user finding their best angle, but also how to understand lighting, how various expressions can change your face and ultimately create the perfect social media moment," Acer explained in a press release. Additionally, to make sharing those amazing photos seamless, users can access social media apps such as Facebook or Instagram. “Being on social media never looked so glamorous," Acer added.

If it seems like Lady Gaga is the only person who would dare wear such a fascinating fascinator, the designer has actually made a very similar piece for Mother Monster and some of her friends in the past. If you’re so inclined to get your hands on the high-end hat, consider a trip to London Fashion Week, which starts today. The creation will be on display at the Christian Cowan-Sanluis fashion presentation and it’s available to purchase through appointment. BRB booking my flight now…
