On a cold winter day you can hardly do without a hat.
Some women prefer not to wear any headwear as it may ruin hair styling and spoil the whole image. However, the hat is not only a nice accessory, it is a practical piece of clothing that keeps you warm and your hair beautiful.
This article is for those who take care about their wellness and at the same time want to remain trendy even in the icy weather.
There is a great variety of hat styles that allows each lady to make her own choice.
The main hat trend of this season is a beret. I guess berets will always be in fashion. They can become narrower or wider but they are invariably popular among women all over the world.
Monochromatic classic, bright or solemn black berets are very fashionable this season. There is one peculiarity though – this winter berets often have different embellishments and brooches.
You can wear your favorite beret a bit sideways or far backwards in style of 1970s. See for beret designs in collections by Donna Karan, Chanel, Marc by Marc Jacobs, Narciso Rodriguez, Ralph Lauren, Stephen Jones and others.
Knitted hats have always been popular among teenagers and this season they can be worn by hot beauties as well. Knitted hats are warm and nice to wear in winter.
There are some variations in style, for instance you can see a top knitted hat in Burberry Prorsum collection.
Among other designers to present knitted hats were Hermes and Cynthia Steffe.
Berets, knitted hats and caps may accessorize any bohemian style outfit.
Caps with no any embellishments create an image of a modern independent girl while the ones decorated with bursts of feathers and bejeweled details make a purely feminine look.
Monotone and plaid caps worn close to face look well on many girls, so feel free to choose something for you. Caps are not the hottest hat trend this winter but they can probably become very fashionable in spring/summer season. (James Coviello, 3.1 Phillip Lim, Dolce & Gabbana)
Headscarves in Audrey Hepburn or Queen Elizabeth’s style are coming into fashion.
Lots of women wear them in spring or summer but now we see them in winter collections by Dolce & Gabbana and Paul Smith. Looks interesting!
I love headscarves!!! Girls look so pretty, so womanlike wearing them! Somehow they remind me of those Russian toys called Matryoshka dolls.
Classic Hats are no less popular this season. Either wide-brimmed or narrow they can create a feminine and romantic look or strict and business-like.
However, this season designers decided to refuse from feminine images and paid close attention to extreme shapes, such as sombreros, fedoras, hats with cowboy elements, rounded hats and ones with high crown.
There are some decorative elements though, such as: satin band, lace, brooches. Besides, it’s worth mentioning those interesting models by Christian Dior and Gianfranco Ferré – they are made from crocodile leather. (Gucci, James Coviello, Christian Dior and Gianfranco Ferré, Michael Kors, Carolina Herrera, Vera Wang, Christian Dior, Marc Jacobs)
And the last trend is the fur hat, the style that will always be in vogue despite all those Green Peace attacks and campaigns. Fur is widely presented in collections for this winter and it is not only hat collections that are in great variety of fur but also coats, muffs, collars, etc.
As usual there are a lot of trends that are eye-catching but you shouldn’t follow the fashion blindly. Choose something that flatters you personally, that helps you look nicer. Good luck in your shopping!
