Can someone solve the Prince Phillip hat mystery for me? I really don't remember him wearing the top hat with the feather (and I'm not a fan of it)?😕 I remember the one to the right very well! I've searched Google (I don't have the movie😔) and can't find a photo with him in the black hat. I really wish they would have him in the one that is so framiler from the movie. Sorry, he's just my favorite prince. I mean, the guy can dance and fight dragons...what's not to love? 😄

Perhaps they thought the original looked too Peter Pan-ish? Or Robin Hood-ish. - JustCantWait  780.8 #123 4:54PM
that is my guess, too. - HandMeAChurroImmaFaint  1798.4 #42 5:23PM
😁 That's too bad. I really don't think anyone would mistake him for Peter Pan. The hats are similar, but still pretty different. Oh well. - Sweet_Irish_Cream  2550.6 #22 5:25PM
True SIC, especially if the hat were red...and slim. Very diff from Peters. - MomWithAJuiceBoxBuzz  922.2 #94 10:49PM
Yeah, why didn't they just leave him hat-less? So weird - MissMolly  696.5 #142 8:09AM
In all honesty though, someone should email Disney and ask - shadowgamer  1954.3 #37 5:17PM
I agree it looks horrible! - mcramos925  247.4 #1031 11:41AM
I was thinking about asking this earlier, too. I've complained about Aurora's sleeves before so I didn't want to complain about his hat. I'm just happy to know I'm not alone either :). - kss4tink  216.8 #1396 9:31PM
It's the great and powerful Phillip. He can pull out singing woodland creatures from his hat. ✨💫🎩 - Waites4DodgerEars  659.2 #158 4:50PM
Maaaaagggiiiicccccc - Waites4DodgerEars  659.2 #158 4:50PM
The top hat doesn't work much for me either. - Deltachiq  969.0 #90 4:52PM
that is strange - Dave  8638.5 #2 4:52PM
Maybe it was an improv for a cold head? - secretagentangel  669.6 #154 4:57PM
How about we solve that with his own hat (the one on the right) 😄 - Sweet_Irish_Cream  2550.6 #22 5:00PM
I looked online and someone else posted pictures on their tumblr on Prince Phillip going through Pixie Hollow. It was in December and they too were confused on the hat and why he was wearing it. - Waites4DodgerEars  659.2 #158 4:58PM
How funny. I knew I wasn't the only one. - Sweet_Irish_Cream  2550.6 #22 5:00PM
Ya as they put it, "Shouldn't he be wearing one of those Robin Hood hats?" - Waites4DodgerEars  659.2 #158 5:03PM
Haha. Exactly! He looks much better in it 👍 - Sweet_Irish_Cream  2550.6 #22 5:10PM
Prince Phillip. Two "L"'s. when we saw him several years ago it was a top hat. - sewedna  84.6 #3214 4:59PM
The hat is actually purple ( I'm guessing that Flora and Merriweather had a compromise on the color) and slants slightly forward but not at the extreme angle that it does in the movie. Probably just Disney's wardrobe designers liked it that way. If not, I answer 42. - shadowgamer  1954.3 #37 5:05PM
You are wise SG. I have no better explanation. - MyPark  944.1 #91 5:08PM
Which? The top hat is purple (don't think that makes it any better by the way😄). I figured it was Disney wardrobe messing with things, but it's just not my favorite adjustment...😒 - Sweet_Irish_Cream  2550.6 #22 5:14PM
Was referring to his costume hat. - shadowgamer  1954.3 #37 5:33PM
And he can sing! Lol - Minnieme79  8.0 #7561 5:06PM
😄👍 yes! - Sweet_Irish_Cream  2550.6 #22 5:09PM
I've always wondered this too! - missgoofy  367.8 #376 5:27PM
I've also noticed that Snow White's prince has 2 different hats. He has a blue one that he wears during meet and greets and then a brown one for parades, though I do think he has 2 in the movie as well. Noticed it while moving photos around on Flickr. - shadowgamer  1954.3 #37 5:30PM
Good catch. - PrincessDuckie  587.8 #187 5:37PM
Definitely not a fan of the top hat on him, glad you brought this up - DarkwingHuck  242.8 #1076 5:37PM
He's worn the top hat four years. If you look at pictures from decades ago he's in a top hat. I personally hate it. Pulls me right out of any magic moment they are trying to present. - AWholeNewWorld  253.7 #976 5:44PM
I know they have done it for years....but, that still doesn't make it right 😄 - Sweet_Irish_Cream  2550.6 #22 5:48PM
You are getting confused with Yankee doodle dandy. - madsdad  1124.6 #73 5:54PM
That isn't macaroni! - shadowgamer  1954.3 #37 6:07PM
I can wear any hat I please - Philliprocks  276.3 #762 6:14PM
"I'm a prince, I DO WHAT I WANT!" - shadowgamer  1954.3 #37 6:14PM
Diva 😉😄 - Sweet_Irish_Cream  2550.6 #22 9:54PM
that black hat looks out of place. :( - Sleepingbeautysmom  273.0 #799 9:23PM
Phillip is also my favorite Prince. And I absolutely abhor this hat. It's tacky and I hate it. - MousekaNinja  335.2 #451 9:40PM
👆😂😂😂 fancypants. - bluefairy  627.1 #174 9:55PM
Swanky words right there. 😁 - Waites4DodgerEars  659.2 #158 10:10PM
It was the first word that came to mind. 😊 - MousekaNinja  335.2 #451 10:23PM
I thought it was just me!! I'd rather see him hat-less! Ugh. It's awful. - jmgphx  322.7 #511 7:56AM
Ugly hat I'll throw it in the pond tomorrow - HanLostLeia  1092.6 #76 9:44PM
Yay!! My hero!! - Sweet_Irish_Cream  2550.6 #22 9:51PM
Then we can have "hat watch 2013" in the castle moat? - Sharkgrrl19  202.9 #1584 10:59AM
Who cares, he's cute. - AshleyLynn22  747.6 #136 9:54PM
Simple curiosity. - Sweet_Irish_Cream  2550.6 #22 9:56PM
Lol sorry that didn't mean to sound rude. I mean, "hey girl who cares about that hat he is tots cute!!" 💁😄 - AshleyLynn22  747.6 #136 10:11PM
Haha. I still can't stop wondering. It tots take away some from the cuteness. He looks redic 😄 - Sweet_Irish_Cream  2550.6 #22 10:15PM
I have questions that myself the few times I have seen him! Hopefully one day they mix it up:) - BooEve123  800.3 #115 10:09PM
Same here. Maybe he should go in for a refurb 😄 - Sweet_Irish_Cream  2550.6 #22 10:17PM
I was thinking the same thing earlier when I saw His post. Umm Philip doesn't look like that. - PixiPirateMaid  118.7 #2757 10:14PM
No, I don't - Philliprocks  276.3 #762 8:00AM
But it's such an interesting hat philliprocks 😃 - Tinkerbellmom4  296.1 #633 8:10AM
Meh his whole outfit is a miss for me. - DisneyMe2Death  607.0 #180 10:19PM
I've always been disappointed with this. he's such a cutie in the movie and the hat is just not attractive! - Sarafina  398.6 #335 8:39AM
I 100% agree. Phillip is my favorite prince but the hat just does not make sense whatsoever. I don't even think they had top hats in the Middle Ages when the story is supposed to take place. Way to go Disney for being historically inaccurate. And if Prince Eric can walk around without a hat, why can't Phillip? Uh oh, now that I've said that they might make Eric wear some sailor hat. - x2ndstar2therightx  200.1 #1628 8:47AM
Lol. Thanks. Now I get your "inside joke" on my thread. Soooooo true - tish  260.3 #906 8:56AM
He's not making it work..im sorry, you are out! - Sharkgrrl19  202.9 #1584 11:01AM
Maybe.... it's too hard to make a hat of that shape? From the side the hats look somewhat similar-ish kind of...: http://bit.ly/159HU0W - Jenniferr  428.0 #295 12:00PM
The Imagineers can make ANYTHING! :) - HandMeAChurroImmaFaint  1798.4 #42 12:35PM
"🎶 I'm too sexy for my hat 🎶" - Prince Phillip - leafs17  61.7 #3543 12:15PM
It is an odd looking hat. I will agree. - meridafan  1035.5 #83 12:18PM
I'mt glad Flynn doesn't wear a hat. But he does have a satchel. - Sharkgrrl19  202.9 #1584 12:39PM
European man purse? 😉😄 - Sweet_Irish_Cream  2550.6 #22 12:51PM
This reminded me of Eurotrip. - shadowgamer  1954.3 #37 1:13PM
SIC, exactly what it is. But if you ask him he will show you what is in his satchel. Lol - Sharkgrrl19  202.9 #1584 1:45PM
That sounds dirty. 😂 - Sweet_Irish_Cream  2550.6 #22 1:48PM
Indiana jones wears one! - lostgirl7988  541.3 #208 1:55PM
