What is a millenery?

Millinery is the craft or trade of making hats. Historically, milliners were involved in the making and selling of hats, the materials used in hat-making, and even the wearing of hats. In modern times, millinery usually refers to the creation of high-fashion headpieces for women. This work may be done by "milliners" or "hat makers" or a combination of the two.
