This page documents some examples of Enlighted hats with EL wire. In many cases, EL wire is better suited for a hat than for other types of clothing, provided that the lighting is installed on areas that will not flex repeatedly.
However, please note that the high-frequency driver required for EL illumination will produce a high-pitched whining sound. Some people find this sound annoying when it's mounted close to their ears. Others don't notice the sound at all, or are willing to suffer for fashion.
