[Maison Michel](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/barbour-and-maison-kitsun) is hat royalty (if there is such a thing). The company’s artistic director is Laetitia Crahay, who happens to also be the head of accessories at [Chanel](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/chanels-new-high-jewelry-collection). With a resume like that it’s no wonder that well known fashion fans were eager to model [Maison Michel’s latest line](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/pyper-malone).

The Maison Michel photos were taken by none other than Karl Lagerfeld and featured Milla Jovovich, Olivier Theyskens and Sean Lennon all wearing the label's signature chapeaus. Fashion royalties coming together for our heads' happiness!
