The finished prototype. I have realized several things. First I want the cap about an inch shallower, second, I need to work the pattern just a little to finesse my circle work.

Getting Away From Anxiety
After reading and discussing my ideas with my class, I've decided to move on from the anxiety escape hat. It's not practical and the concept would in and of itself reduce it own effectiveness of its intended purpose. By creating a barrier between the patient and the crowd the barrier becomes a new source of anxiety for the individual wearing the hat, as this will draw even more unwanted attention to them by drawing a large curtain around themselves.
I had originally thought this would enduce a sort of ostrich effect that calmed the wearer and made them feel isolated from the source of their anxiety, crowds. However, upon researching the causes of social anxiety, I've realized that even if it worked, the moment the barrier was lost the wearer would be plunged, directly back into a crowd, with people now openly staring at them.
So now, I am looking into a new set of ideas, focusing more on weather protection.
