Hats



Humans have covered their heads since time immemorial.  Initially headwear offered protection from the elements; later head coverings became symbols of status of authority.  Soon after hats progressed to become not only a uniform, but also an art form.

At the turn of the 20th century in 1900, both men and women changed their hats dependent on their activity.

Hats when worn today are either worn for a special dressy occasion such as a wedding or conversely as casual statement attire.

It is unlikely that the hat will ever die as an accessory as it offers far too much potential for drawing attention to the face. 




 Fashion or not,

to me

there's just

something

about

a hat
