How
the Red Hat Society Came to Be
The
Red
Hat Society began as a result of a few women deciding to
greet middle age with humor and a touch of class!
Sue Ellen Cooper is the Exalted Founding Queen Mother.
She impulsively gave a red hat and a copy of the poem,
"Warning" by Jenny Joseph, to a friend and then another and
then another. ,
One day it occurred to them they should go to tea
in Full Red & Purple Regalia! This is how the National
Disorganization began!
WHAT
DO WE WEAR?
Woman of 50 and over attend functions in FULL REGALIA
(Red Hat, Purple Outfit), The Younger woman are "ladies in
waiting"
and they wear PINK HATS and LAVENDER until their RED-uation on their
50th birthday.
