PENNY, nine-year-old daughter of children's hat designer Victor Hyett, has the last word in her family-but only when it comes to choosing hats. She is seen here with her father ng she tries on one of his latest boaters, Father Victor has found by experience that Ponny can always pick a good hat, So when new designs are brought out, she gives the go-ahead on those she likes. Penny already has a vast wardrobe of over 100 hate-much envied by her
