Dear Helena,
I was brought up to take off my hat whenever I was indoors. Nowadays,I often see young people eating at a restaurant wearing all kinds of hats. Have manners changed?
Sincerely,Gent Dear Gent,You're correct that traditionally men should remove their hats in restau?rants to show good manners. The reason was that a man's hat was designed to protect him from the dust,so it migh,be dirty. Women,on the other hand* traditionally kept their hats on when dining out. Their hats were designed to be eye-catching,and were usually connected to their hair with a hatpin (帽针) ,so taking them off would be difficult.
These days,whether it's suitable to wear your hat in a restaurant depends on the hat- not on your sex. There are two types of hats. The first is a statement hat,chosen to draw attention to the wearer,such as a beautiful vintage cloche with a nice hatpin. The second type is a comfort hat like an old baseball cap that you wear to hide the fact that you haven't washed your hair for some days. Your comfort hat may be acceptable in a coffee house,diner,or other casual settings,but if you're going out to a more formaK正式的) dinner,you should leave it at home.
A statement hat,on the other hand,is perfectly suitable in a restaurant. You should not remove it,just like you should not remove your shoes at a par?ty. Doing either could ruin your whole look.
Karen Hatfield is co-owner of Hatfield's Restaurant in Los Angeles. She actu?ally considers it a good thing if you are wearing a statement hat. "I'm glad when I see hats because it means they put some thought into their outfit,"she said.
Sincerely,Helena
