Got a bee in your bonnet? Keeping too much under your hat? Well, hat’s off and throw your hat in the ring, it’s time to put your thinking caps on!

A whirlwind trip through the enchanting history of the hat, discovering how such a frippery led to unique changes in the lives and dress of 19th and 20th century women, from laws to protect men’s safety, self defence classes for women, the declining morals of ladies and international protests!
