This book, which traces the history of eyewear over the past millennium, features the most interesting items in this collection, as well as models owned by other eyewear enthusiasts.

Publication Date: November 2014
A book on hats and their world has been missing for several years. Here is a beautiful book tracing the saga of a family of innovative industrialists who gave birth to some of the most coveted hat collections for decades. Through the reconstituted tools and workshops of the hatter’s accomplices, we rediscover these craftsmen who combined their know-how to give life to hats. The museum’s multiple and attractive collections are presented in a layout that highlights the shapes and materials and presents hats according to the major fashion trends, from the 18th century to the most prestigious contemporary designers. From the Museum to the Hat Workshop-Museum in Chazelles-sur-Lyon, five centuries of hat-making tradition. The Hat Museum, which has since become the Workshop-Museum, opened its doors in 1983. Its creation followed the decline of the local mono-industry of hat making. It is dedicated to the preservation of the hat-making memory and the active safeguarding of know-how. It is labeled “Museum of France”. The author : Éliane Bolomier, born in Lyon, studied ethnology. Her various research projects in the Monts du Lyonnais region led her to Chazelles-sur-Lyon, where she founded the Musée du Chapeau, which in 2013 became La Chapellerie, atelier-musée du Chapeau. She has been the curator since 1985 and has already published several books on the subject: La Chapellerie à Chazelles-sur-Lyon, Approche technique et historique ; Cent ans de Chapeaux 1870-1970 ; Le Chapeau, Grand art et savoir-faire ; L’encyclopédie du couvre-chef.

Philip treacy hats of the twenty-first century
120.00 € En savoir +BuyAuthor: Philip Treacy
Publishing House: Rizzoli USA
Publication Date: October 2015
The work of one of the most influential and innovative hat designers of this century. Philip Treacy’s career over the last two decades has been prolific and high-profile. A visual delight, this book shares Treacy’s favorite designs in 250 striking photographs, curated by Treacy himself, and showcases his collaborations and personal relationships. Treacy has said, “Every hat I have ever 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 modeled on equally famous heads, ranging from Grace Jones and Lady Gaga to the Duchesses of Cornwall and Devonshire.
Since his early 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 Plexiglas and leather, trimmed with feathers or Swarovski crystals. Combining luxury and sophistication, his work has helped shape modern fashion. This first, highly personal book is a glamorous tour through Treacy’s world, and documents how a hat can evoke the magic of life and speak to the transformative power of fashion.
