It always seems like the kind of person that can truly pull off statement headwear also has an unshakeable personal confidence, an X-factor. Someone like&#8230; Cher. In fact, Cher may be one of the most prolific hat-wearers of our time (royal family notwithstanding)\u2014having worn a vast assortment of hats, headbands, and headpieces during her five decades in the entertainment industry.<\/p>\n<p>This morning, in London, it was a patchwork monochrome leather beret (<em>very<\/em> Chanel M\u00e9tiers d&#8217;Art 21), worn with a matching oversized coat to attend an appearance on the <em>BBC<\/em>.
