INTRODUCTION
Welcome to The Queen’s Hat
The international platform that celebrates the elegance, charisma, and timeless power of the hat.
Born from the creative vision of journalist and fashion manager Gabriella Chiarappa, The Queen’s Hat is much more than an exhibition: it is a constantly evolving cultural project, growing year after year in the name of excellence.
It began in February 2024 with its first edition in the historic setting of Palazzo Visconti, before establishing its second edition (February 20-22, 2025) at the refined Residenza Vignale in Milan. Today, it is eagerly preparing for its third edition, proudly carrying forward a story of style, identity, and vision.
Curated by Le Salon de la Mode (Musikologiamo), the project is a tribute to the age-old art of the hat and its ability to tell stories, cultures, and individuality.
A virtual realm dedicated to emerging designers and established masters, where iconic styles, timeless inspirations, and contemporary creations that blend fashion, art, and theatricality are explored.
EXHIBITION
The Queen’s Hat is a traveling reality, ready to conquer historic and prestigious locations around the world, with the tireless passion and obsessive attention to detail of Gabriella Chiarappa—a woman inspired by the great visionaries of haute couture hats, such as Stephen Jones and Philip Treacy, to create an experience that enchants, engages, and inspires.
The Queen’s Hat highlights the creativity of the brightest international talents, becoming a meeting point and a hub for visionary minds. A true community celebrating the conscious return to the use of an accessory that is not simply an ornament, but a statement of personality.
“Wearing a hat is not about covering your head, but about revealing who you truly are.”
Enter the kingdom of wonders with us.
The Queen’s Hat awaits you.
