Anna Dello Russo Wears Giant Bird Hat To Carine Roitfeld's Vampire Ball (PHOTOS, POLL)

We already know that Anna Dello Russo keeps an extra apartment just for her clothes. But does she have a second spare apartment to hold her hats?

She may need one. The Vogue Nippon editor joined fashionable revelers at last night's vampire-themed ball in Paris wearing what is probably the biggest hat we've ever seen.

Designed by Stephen Jones For Giles, Dello Russo's topper featured a giant flamingo (or bright red swan?) with its curved neck extended, its beak bared angrily and real feathered wings spread wide.

The dramatic fascinator was just one approach to the night's red, white and black dress code. Others in attendance at the Carine Roitfeld-hosted fete wore extra dark black eyeliner, such as Miranda Kerr and Anja Rubik, and others went for full-on fangs, like Olivier Theyskens.

But really, Anna's topper takes the cake. Bloodied mouths, dark eyes and fake fangs may fit the theme best, but when it comes to sheer fear factor, an angry swan is the scariest of all.

Check out the iconic editor's wild look below (click "Fullscreen" for big photos)!

Ya know.... the design on that backdrop...makes a funny replacement for her left arm.
Almost as scrawny as the right one.
What a nasty-looking piece of work.

Brava!

If you're going to walk on thin ice, you may as well dance.

Are there really red swans, or is it just that time of the month?

That red bird hat looks like the perfect accessory for Ann Coulter...that woman is as wacky as wacky gets, and, now, here is the perfect accompaniment....

I'm not up on too many people in the spotlight...this Anna Dello Russo somewhat strangely reminded of that other screwball blond....

Yeah, darn those boney blonds, anyway...

Thing about Coulter is she wouldn't have the fun in her to be so benignly outrageous in a fit of zanyness. Coulter's just another bought-and-paid-for $nake in the gra$$ haterbaiter.

WOW!! Talk about unattractive......... And the hat is ugly too!

Well put. Poor thing is skin and bones. When she sticks that bony arm out the witch will never throw her in the dinner pot
