This is only the third year the Headwear Association has named a Hat Person of the Year. Previous recipients were Hollywood A-listers Brad Pitt, who graces the cover of the current Hollywood Reporter magazine, and Johnny Depp.
The group highlighted Middleton's top hat looks, including a "velvet cabernet hat by Rose Cory" worn on Christmas Day, a "maple leaf headpiece" by Silvia Fletcher on a trip to Canada and a Vivien Sheriff fascinator worn last February.
The Headwear Association, founded in 1908, is the oldest fashion trade association in the industry.
