The Headwear Association (THA) is the oldest association in the hat trade and every year they honor people in the public eye who are frequently seen wearing fashionable and trend-setting hats.

This year their members nominated more than 50 legendary hat wearers, both male and female, both living and deceased, and the board of directors selected Aretha Franklin, Cameron Diaz and Gwen Stefani for this year’s female honors.

They’ll be formally inducted into The Headwear Hall of Fame in March and will join past female winners who include Audrey Hepburn, Sarah Jessica Parker, Jennifer Lopez, Jackie Kennedy, Madonna and Princess Diana.

Hats off to these stylish hat-lovin’ ladies!
