Hello everybody and Happy Monday, (or is than an oxymoron?)
As any filmmaker can tell you, a hat can be an expressive prop when properly utilized. Witness young Judy’s confrontation with Gideon Grey, early on in Zootopia. Just before she delivers the line, “I don’t know when to quit”, she fastens her police cap firmly on her head–leaving absolutely no doubt that she means it.
Then there’s the scene following Judy’s resignation from the ZPD, when she’s back in Bunnyburrow, helping out at the Hopps Family Farmstand. The big, floppy hat she’s wearing, (see our featured image) lends an added air of sadness to her appearance.
And, let’s face it, she looked about as formidable in that meter maid’s cap as the average Nerf ball. It was with good reason that the directors had her throw it away when she set off in pursuit of Duke Weaselton
And so, today’s Art of the Day collections pays tribute to the subject of headgear in all its varied incarnations.
Enjoy….and don’t forget to show the original artists some love by clicking on the source-links.

We open with a series of images showing Judy modeling various types of hats.
Here’s little Judy, trying on her homemade police cap for the first time.

I don’t know what the heck a ‘graffiti hat’ is, but this is another good look for our favorite bunny-cop.

Now…check out this pic and you’ll see what we mean about how a floppy hat adds to the air of melancholy. Compare this hat with the one Judy has on in image #4. If she were wearing that hat in this pic, she wouldn’t look nearly as sad, tears or no tears.

No way could we post a collection like this without including a pic of Judy in a beret
Judy in a mil-spec fatigue cap; okay, we’re kind of cheating a little on this one, since it’s a crossover.

Now let’s move on to some images featuring Nick Wilde showing off various kinds of hats.
Here’s little Nick in an ‘old school’ Junior Ranger Scout hat, (but not for very much longer, by the look of things.)

This is supposed to be a cowboy hat, but to me it looks more like an Aussie drover’s hat.

To me, this one has just a little bit of a pachuco vibe to it

Personally, I think Bullwinkle Moose did the rabbit-out-of-a-hat shtick much better, don’t you folks?
