I suggest that you Google - images - for examples. For me, headgear is a generic term for anything worn on the head for whatever purpose. A hat probably has a brim around the entire piece, and in the case of women's wear, it could be highly decorated.

I originally replied that headgear is a generic term, which means that it includes anything worn on the head.
