Quite obvious: The hat represents Kesser (as in the first sefirah, of which Da'as is the penimiyus). The chiddush of Purim is that try as they/we might - even to be mesalek the Da'as that is the penimiyus of Kesser - the Kesser itself is never severed - "Yechida l'Yachdach" - no matter what strange forms the outside takes, the internal link is always intact.

Why is it that for some people the Purim costume begins and ends with the hat?
