Berets look good on certain heads, but the Pakol could adorned successfully by anybody. Damn useful in the British winter too.

The OP makes the basic mistake of assuming that it's the clothes that make the person in question - but it's not. Most of the people who 'look good' in berets would look good in a sack and a straw hat, and most of the people who look stupid in a beret would just look stupid in any kind of a hat. It's their beauty, their confidence, their aura, their persona, their talent, their reputation (and so on) that makes the beret (or any clothing) cool or not (there are limits to this of course...)

Cue photos of Beckham or Wiggins in a beret... they seems to be the English personification of style over substance to which FM refers... or is that now Mary Berry?
