The Financial Times was right when they pointed out that women’s hats were making a comeback. And no, we don’t just mean the ever-reliable dad cap. Classic fedoras, wide brims, bonnets, berets, and more are trending again this season.
Recent runway shows and even some celebrities showed how you can sport these hats in any setting. To get some inspiration for your next look, we list down some picks for you.
Knit beanies
Although this is commonly worn during winter, the bonnet can also be a go-to for casual wear. You can either opt for a plain one like what Camille Co is wearing here or one with a pompom at the end.

Fedoras
I often associate fedoras with classy and badass women in noir films. Aside from wearing a monochromatic fedora, you can also change it up with a bit of color like with Mich Dulce’s gray and pink fedora. That said, you can add some flair to your corporate attire or eveningwear with this.

Flat newsboy caps
Model Bella Hadid has been loving this hat as she paired it with a denim ensemble, jersey jacket, and even on a night out with Karl Lagerfeld. So if you’re not a fan of the simple dad cap, flat newsboy caps will add more edginess to any outfit. Plus, doesn’t it remind you of old military hats as well?

Whether you’re going to an afternoon brunch or the beach, wide-brimmed hats are lifesavers when it’s sunny. These also give anyone a mysterious and glamorous look―think: Kate Winslet in Titanic.
