No longer the preserve of newborns, the bonnet is having its own catwalk moment this season. But is their cosy revival driven purely by practicality, or something deeper?Hej! Greetings from Copenhagen. I am in the Danish capital for fashion week, now regularly referred to as the “fifth fashion week” after New York, London, Milan and Paris – such is its influence in the industry and beyond.While some of the catwalk trends have divided opinion (not everyone is down for a ballet flat/sneaker hybrid) on the streets, one item gets a firm yes: the bonnet. Yes, the head covering typically associated with newborns has been seen on everyone from the street-style set outside shows to the Danes queueing at bakeries for their morning buns. It’s not just in Denmark, either. The accessory is thriving and bumping beanies off the headgear charts in London and New York. One TikTok user summed it up: “Brat summer, bonnet winter”.

10 hours ago Young people say they'd elect a 'strong leader'. I say give more of them the vote | Polly Toynbee

Given what gen Z have been through, it’s no wonder they’re not impressed by democracy. But giving them a real stake in it could change everythingFor God’s sake don’t give them the vote! Many people said that after a shocking poll published this week appeared to show young people rejecting democracy. But that’s utterly wrong.

They need more democracy, not less, and soon.The Channel 4 poll found that 52% of 13- to 27-year-olds think “the UK would be a better place if a strong leader” were in change “who does not have to bother with parliament and elections”, and 33% thought the country would be better run “if the army was in charge”, among other dark impulses.Polly Toynbee is a Guardian columnist Continue reading...
