You can thank Miuccia Prada for this one. After a short heyday in the 1920s, turbans are back for spring 2007 (Yves Saint Laurent, Ralph Lauren, and knock-off maestro H&M are following suit). But are everyday gals really buying it? Turban test-drivers in the UK dread the Hilda Ogden comparisons, are laughed at by tourists, and are loath to be mistaken for a cancer patient or an 80-year-old pensioner. From left to right, we have a model in Prada, a Brit in Ralph Lauren, and turban queen Carmen Miranda.
