Description

Hats! is an exploration of headwear from around the world. Divided into four parts reflecting the key reasons why we make and wear hats—Practical, Symbolic, Aesthetic and Transformative—the book covers a broad range of iconic headgear from firemen's helmets to beautiful traditional lace Mantillas from Spain, to bionic visors worn by celebrities.

Drawing on various collections, and in particular the archives of the Culture Trust, which boasts 'the most complete collection of hats and headwear in the world', as well as contributions from today's most inspiring milliners, this compendium is a fantastic resource for accessory designers, as well as a perfect gift for hat lovers.
