These gorgeous photos of 18th century hats were sourced from my favourite fashion reference book: "
The Collection of the Kyoto Costume Institute: Fashion, A History from the 18th to the 20th Century" published by Taschen. (This book is an absolute must for anyone interested in historical fashion).
I found the man's hat particularly intriguing since it is similar to what you get when you follow the
origami hat instructions I posted previously.
Don't forget tomorrow is the first
