Students from Kensington & Chelsea Art College have lent their millinery minds to Peter Jones this month having crafted an exclusive collection of hats, which are available to buy both in store and online.
"This season's hats are very much based around classic styles - the panama, trilby and fedora are particular favourites," says hat buyer for Peter Jones, Barbara Suri, noting these as key inspirations for the student creations.
