New York’s Fifth Avenue was alive with color and pizzazz Sunday morning as revelers celebrated Easter with outlandish costumes and bonnets.
The crowd gathered for the city’s annual Easter Parade, a tradition that began in the 1800s as a way for New York’s elite to show off their Sunday best, but has since evolved into a free-for-all of elaborate outfits and decorations.
Some kept it classic with trim chapeaus featuring bright colors and flowers.
While others went in for bolder designs.
A few got political.

And some poured their efforts into outfitting their furry mates.
