Ok, sorry to shout but I need the full skills of the S&B boards for a truly major problem. I have just booked an italian beach holiday and discovered that they enforce a total ban on entering the swimming pools without - horror of horrors - a swimming cap.

Is there such a thing as a stylish swimming
cap? Help ladies, please!

we found this out the hard way a couple of years ago and ended up with some really naff ones bought from the on site shop... what would you consider to be a stylish swim hat?!

i would get something like this in a funky colour to complement my 40s style bathing suit

think it depends on your suit style too though -- you could have a plain cap with a sporty speedo type thing ...

There is no such thing as stylish when it comes to swimming hats. So since whatever you get will look like hell, I would go for lycra, because it won't pull all your hair out by the roots will be more comfortable.

Thanks Kurri, I suspect that you are right. Just to add to the problem I have a huge head! Does anyone know of a brand which makes large sizes so that I can avoid the attractive red line across the forehead when i take it off (about a nano second after leaving the pool|)
