HAT SIZING GUDE

Measure Your Head: Measuring for your head size is both an art and a science. You can use a tape measure (or a length of string that you will have to hold up to a tape measure) to determine the length. Place the string or tape around your head about 1/8” above your ear, across the mid-forehead, completely circling your head. Hold the tape firmly, but not too tightly. Basically you need to measure your head exactly where the hat will sit. If your measurement falls between sizes, choose the next largest size.

Compare: Another valid method to determine hat size is to try on a hat and check the size. If you don’t own a hat, then try on a random hat next time you are visiting a shop that stocks hats. Sizes, even though they do vary depending on the hat maker, are technically universal. You may refer to the sizing chart below if you need to convert a medium to an actual hat size.

A hat is a head covering. It can be worn for protection against the elements, for ceremonial or religious reasons, for

safety, or as a fashion accessory. In the past, hats were an indicator of social status. In the military, they may denote

nationality, branch of service, rank and/or regiment.

One of the first pictorial depictions of a hat appears in a Thebes tomb painting which shows a man wearing a coolie-style

straw hat. Other early hats were the Pileus, a simple skull cap; the Phrygian cap, worn by freed slaves in Greece and

Rome; and the Greek petasos, the first known hat with a brim. Women wore veils, kerchiefs, hoods, caps and wimples. St.

Clement, the patron saint of felt hat makers, is said to have discovered wool felt when he filled his sandals with flax fibers

to protect his feet. Structured hats for women similar to those of male courtiers began to be worn in the late 16th

century. The term ‘milliner’ comes from the Italian city of Milan, where the best quality hats were made in the 18th century.

Millinery was traditionally a woman’s occupation, with the milliner not only creating hats and bonnets but also choosing

lace, trimmings and accessories to complete an outfit. In the first half of the 19th century, women wore bonnets that

gradually became larger, decorated with ribbons, flowers, feathers and gauze trims. By the end of the century, many other

styles were introduced, among them hats with wide brims and flat crowns, the flower pot and the toque. By the middle of

the 1920s, when women began to cut their hair short, they chose hats that hugged the head like a helmet. Since the early

21st century, flamboyant hats have made a comeback, with a new wave of competitive young milliners designing

creations that include turban caps, tromp l'oeil effect felt hats and tall headpieces made of human hair. Some new hat

collections have been described as "wearable sculpture." Many pop stars, among them Lady Gaga, have commissioned

hats as publicity stunts.
