From pulpits to protest lines, catwalks to coronations, Hats! is an international tour of headwear throughout history and global culture.

Divided into four parts reflecting the key reasons why we make and wear hats, 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.

This exploration of headwear from around the world draws 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.

Hats! features contributions from today's most inspiring milliners and serves as a fantastic resource for accessory designers, as well as a perfect gift for hat lovers.

With a foreword by the celebrated milliner Stephen Jones.

Yona Lesger is a curator and has worked at the Culture Trust, where she curated the Hats Made Me Exhibition!, as well as the Victoria & Albert Museum, where she began her career in the fashion and performance departments. She holds an undergraduate degree in Performance Costume from the Edinburgh College of Art and a postgraduate degree in fashion history from the Courtauld Institute of Art.
