So You Think You Know Philip Treacy’s Hats

by Chris Nelson

London milliner Philip Treacy has reached another career high with a self-titled new book on his towering head art.

Roughly 250 photos by the likes of Richard Avedon, Irving Penn, Nick Knight, and Patrick Demarchelier — curated by Treacy himself — fill the pages of the weighty tome, which also pays homage to muses and friends Isabella Blow and Alexander McQueen.
