NYC Easter Parade Photos: See the Best Bonnets of 2016
New York City's annual Easter Parade was as fabulous as ever in 2016, with creative costumes ranging from the political to the very silly.
New Yorkers always seem to outdo themselves in their Easter attire, including some outlandish bonnets, at this spring tradition. We were there for the Easter Sunday festivities as onlookers and participants crowded onto Fifth Ave between 49th and 51st Streets, and saw all manner of hats and costumes. Read on to see photos of some of our favorites.
