“I like hats that make the heart beat faster.” — Philip Treacy Quote

I like hats that make the heart beat faster.

America brought us the baseball cap; it's one of my favorite hats.

I remember in the early nineties people saying the hat was just for old women, but that's ridiculous.

I love the romance of what I do, although because of Isabella, Lady Gaga and Grace Jones, people think I have crazy customers. Sometimes I get more enthusiasm from the housewife who wants a hat and believes in it.

I empathise with the fact that people want to look their best. A hat is all about how it makes you feel - it's so much better than a nip and tuck, and a lot less painful.

I don't think you should have to defend your actions to people who say: 'You've put some paintings on a wall, and if this doesn't have any deep meaning, then why?' What about the Dadaists? What were they doing? Weren't they just having a laugh with their tin hats?

I don't have to walk around in hats or find remote places to go for lunch! I don't get recognised that often.

I love hats and winter is the perfect time for them. I love winter time fashion.

Well, I don't like hats, never wear 'em.

As for fashion, hats have always been part of my fashion.
