Flashback to 1984: Whodini and the Hat

August 13, 2011 by WendyB

“Freaks Come Out at Night” from Whodini‘s 1984 Escape album has been stuck in my head for days.

It’s reawakened my desire for singer Ecstasy’s trademark hat.

Click to buy this album.

If I find a hat just like that, I’m getting it no matter how it looks on me. It looks like I might have to fight gorgeous blogger Moni of Frock Yeah for it, though. Hold my earrings, please!

    That hat reminds me of a matador, and matadors are sexy so I approve. Haha!

    I’d never heard of Whodini, but now I’m going to have their song stuck in my head. Watching the video I couldn’t notice how “current” their looks are. Ecstasy’s partner is like a fashion blogger outfit post waiting to happen. Feather in hair, check, big sunglasses, check, white blazer, check, leather pants, check!
