According to related reports, the Queen seems to have worn more than 5,000 hats after so many years in office.

You can feel that the queen likes hats very much.

In fact, the British have always liked hats. Hats have been an important ornament for women since the Middle Ages. With the development of history, the shape and style of hats have also changed a lot. But no matter how it changes, the status of hats has always been very important.

It is also said that hat culture is related to the weather in Britain. Britain has a temperate maritime climate. It rains all the year round, and it may rain at any time. It is inconvenient to hold an umbrella all the time. After wearing a hat, it is enough to resist sporadic rain. On a rainy day, the hat can keep out the sun. It also has the function of keeping warm in winter. With the passage of time, hats have become an indispensable part of British life.

Careful observation reveals that this kind of hat culture is reflected in many English dramas.

In Downton Abbey, an English drama set in the era of 19 10, both ladies and gentlemen should wear a hat that matches their clothes when they go out.

In Sherlock's Christmas special, Fu Juan and Watson "traveled" to the Victorian era, both wearing hats that were popular at that time. However, compared with the various patterns of women's hats, there are fewer styles of men's hats.

Today, hats are still a very popular ornament and a symbol of fashion, which is deeply loved by British women. In addition to decorative function, the queen's hat is also a status symbol, representing the elegance and majesty of the royal family.

British royal biographer Robert? Lance said that the queen's hat is more than just a fashion accessory. He said: "For a monarch, a hat is obviously a very important costume. It can be said that when the queen puts on her hat, she puts on some kind of crown substitute. "

This hat can be used instead of a crown. No wonder the queen's hats are so varied that people are dazzled.
