| Description |
- Worn black bowler hat from 'Blonde Ambition' tour of 1990
- This amazing hat was worn by Madonna in her first 'Blonde Ambition' tour of 1990 - and was the crowning glory to the fantastically naughty stage outfit designed especially for Madonna by Jean Paul Gaultier
- The actual hat was worn by Madonna and has been signed by The Queen of Pop herself across the top
- The hat was obtained from The New Clothes Agency
- The hat was kindly donated by Robert Key of The Elton John Aids Foundation to the Agency
- Originally the hat was given personally to the foundation and Robert by Madonna herself
- The Blond Ambition Tour, Madonna's world tour of 1990, is considered by many to have changed the look and feel of concert tours
- The tour spanned fifty-seven shows in twenty-seven cities in Japan, North America, and Europe, and lasted approximately four months
- Many consider it to be one of the greatest achievements of Madonna's career
- It was a controversial tour (mainly for its juxtaposition of Catholicism and sexuality) that garnered mixed critical reviews, but mostly positive reviews from fans
- Among fans, it remains perhaps the most popular of all of Madonna's concert tours
