HATS: Innovation & Creation Exhibition

Free exhibition of ground-breaking hats by top British Hat Guild milliners, incl. Stephen Jones OBE and Philip Treacy OBE

The Culture Trust and the British Hat Guild are thrilled to present the 'Hats: Innovation & Creation' exhibition, highlighting  the extraordinary talent and craftsmanship of British Hat Guild milliners.

This collection showcases not only the artistry behind millinery but also the innovative spirit driving the industry forward. By celebrating these remarkable designs, we hope to inspire visitors to appreciate the rich cultural heritage and creative brilliance that make hat making such a unique and cherished art form.
