Philip Treacy: Hat Designer
The work of one of the most influential and innovative hat designers of this century. Philip Treacy’s career over the past two decades has been prolific and remarkable. A visual delight, this book shares Treacy’s favourite designs in 250 striking photographs, selected by Treacy himself, and showcases his personal collaborations and relationships. Treacy has said: Every hat I have made has begun in my mind as a photograph. I can see it on the model, at the right angle, before I even begin. Indeed, his hats have been photographed by the most iconic image-makers of our time, including Patrick Demarchelier, Richard Avedon, Steven Meisel, Mario Testino, Bruce Weber and Irving Penn. And his hats have been inspired by equally famous heads, from Grace Jones and Lady Gaga to the Duchesses of Cornwall and Devonshire. From her earliest friendships with Isabella Blow and Alexander McQueen, Treacy’s imaginative designs have been a synthesis of art and fashion, with materials ranging from silk and lace to plexiglass and leather, embellished with feathers or Swarovski crystals. Blending luxury and sophistication, her work has helped shape modern fashion. This highly personal first book is a glamorous tour of Treacy’s world, documenting how a hat can evoke the magic of life and speak to the transformative power of fashion.
