Philip Treacy Rad Hatter


Spring has finally arrived, at least here in Canada, and we, at StylX.net, although not against the idea of sporting that healthy sun-kissed tan skin, are even more excited to go out and wear our most outrageous hats! Coachella has inspired us so much this year as the fashion personality we are paying tribute to this week; Philip Treacy who just published a photographic archive snapping away 20 years in the business.

The 45-year-old hat-maker got his start by designing hats for couture houses like Chanel, Valentino and Givenchy right after graduating from the National College of Arts and Design in Dublin. Since the beginning of the new millennium he has gone to New York and London to show his annual catwalk shows which are always acclaimed by fashion critics and worn by StylXtas all over the world. More recently, the Irish milliner made headlines when he designed 36 headpieces for the wedding of the decade : Prince William & Catherine Middleton.

As a matter of fact, there are only so many designers who can pretend to have such a broad list of clients from A-list thespians to royal families to billion dollars movie franchise, have received an OBE from prince Charles and have won five British Accessory Designer of the Year but mister Treacy can honestly boast about all of these accomplishments. With influential friends and admirers like the late Isabella Blow, Alexander McQueen and Sarah Jessica Parker, no need to question his talent and impeccable craftsmanship.We, as StylXperts, are continuously in awe in front of so much creativity and wittiness, we simply adore his creations and urge you to sport a hat as often as you can because not only it commands attention and gives direction to your outfit, it also protects from UV damages!
