21 photos of crazy Easter bonnets from the Easter Parade & Bonnet Festival

New Yorkers spill out on Fifth Avenue each Easter Sunday to don their most incredible hats. Trimmed with ribbons and bows, flowers and feathers and sometimes unusual materials, these bonnets are a sight to behold.

The Annual Easter Parade & Bonnet Festival is a tradition that has been alive since the 1870s, and even took place in 2020 when it went virtual.

RECOMMENDED: Photos: Admire these gorgeous spring flowers blooming around NYC

Every year, we are impressed with the sheer talent and creativity our neighbors display on top of their heads. Below, we’ve rounded up 21 of the most incredible getups, from literal takes on Easter with bunnies and eggs to more thematic and metaphorical ones.

Enjoy this feast for the eyes.
