The hat, a cherished garment ubiquitous across societies, symbolizes crucial cultural elements—such as governance (the crown), religion (the turban), and traditions (the bonnet). Throughout history, hats encapsulate the essence of culture, while also serving as a medium for personal style and emotion. In Drake Stutesman’s visually captivating homage to the hat, the narrative unfolds from the Ice Age, revealing its impact on abstract thinking. The journey explores the intricate evolution of millinery and hatting professions in the Middle Ages, highlights the emergence of superstar milliners in the 20th century, and concludes with the innovative creations of contemporary hat makers who continue to captivate us.
