ADRIAN HISTORY:
Many people regard and collect hats not only as fashion items but also as pieces of sculpture.
Hats designed by noted Hollywood designer, Gilbert Adrian, are extremely rare. The designer was not enthusiastic about designing hats for sale. He felt it was too much work for too little money. However, the ones he did make are outstanding works of art. He normally made them only to use in his fashion shows and advertisements and occasionally for a major client.
As the greatest of all costume designers for Old Hollywood movies, Adrian understood how to create and add drama through the use of hats.
The hats presented in this collection create a wonderful sense of drama and present a truly outstanding fashion statement and, as such, are a very important and very rare part of Adrian's body of work.

- Chanel F/W 2009 Runway Black & White Mohair Bow HatBy ChanelLocated in Boca Raton, FLWhen Gabrielle Chanel opened her first boutique on the Rue Cambon in Paris in 1910, it was hats she debuted to her early clientele. Famous actresses of the day took note and began making her a name years before she unveiled the sportswear, perfume, and haute couture that would firmly establish the House of Chanel. Fine millinery remains a hallmark of the French megabrand nearly a century later, as exemplified in this remarkable hat by creative director Karl Lagerfeld. Inspired in part by British Regency-era men’s fashion, the Chanel 2009 Fall collection was feminine and poised, featuring frills, plisse ruffs, and georgette blouses. As seen as look #19 on that season’s runway, this charming black and white polka dot hat...Category
