Women's hats: history
Headwear has always been a synonym for power and elegance and their origin even dates back to prehistoric times, but it was the Ancient Egyptians who developed a more profound meaning; the pharaohs usually wore a white tiara or red beret above their wig to signify perfection and their almost divine superiority. In Mesopotamia there were berets made from animal fur, while in Crete, during the Minoan era women would wear hats in somewhat strange forms as shown by some of the artifacts found. In the 700s the hat became indispensable, assuming the form of real works of art in majestic dimensions. In fact, hats had to cover the huge powdered wigs of women and therefore had to have suitable dimensions appropriate for this task. In the following decade fashion had fun playing with shapes and sizes, so much so that tiny little hats were created, used as decoration on unusual female hairstyles, or enormous wide-brimmed hats with floral and feathered decorations for the most extravagant. During the 900s the hats returned to having small sizes like the famous cloche hat of the '20s and '30s or those of the 1940s with veils that came down in front of the face.
