Explore the delightful realm of hats - wildly plumed bonnets, silk turbans, sequined caps, embroidered crowns, Sarah Jessica Parker's lime-green fascinator and 250 other elegant and sometimes outlandish styles. Displayed with the wit and whimsy of British milliner-to-the-stars Stephen Jones, Hats reveals the boundless creativity of hat design and our own fascination with wearing these indescribable works of art.
