Using radical materials and designs that range from refined to
whimsical, Stephen Jones's exquisitely crafted hats ignited a revival of
British millinery in the early 1980s and today continue to attract
stylish celebrities. Jones has also collaborated with legendary
designers, including Vivienne Westwood, Jean Paul Gaultier, and Marc
Jacobs. Published to accompany a touring exhibition, Hats offers an
unprecedented view of the world of millinery. Drawing on Jones's own
archive and the V&A's extensive collection, this vividly illustrated
book examines the inspiration behind hat design, the history of
millinery from the process to the materials to the workshop, and the
etiquette of hat-wearing.
