What does a person's hat say about them? Throughout human history, headwear has played a vital role in society, possessing rich social and religious symbolism. It primarily denotes the status, gender, marital status, ethnicity, religious affiliation, and profession of its owner.

This book is the first popular science publication in Russian literature dedicated to such an important and expressive element of traditional dress as the headdress. Its origins, varieties, and cultural significance are revealed through dozens of fascinating stories told by Kirill Babaev, a scholar and traveler who founded the world's first museum of traditional headwear, "World of Hats," in 2014.

Intended for a general readership.
