The hat is one of the oldest accessories that accompany the woman. It serves to adorn the head, but also to protect it from the cold and the sun. It’s a great ally to make the look more interesting.
“Style and personality”, are the two words that the personal and corporate image consultant, Lilian Riskalla, uses to define what the hat adds to a woman’s look.
So much so that many celebrities and even princesses and queens do not fail to wear the hat whenever possible.

- Festivals and shows that take place during the day;
- Day trips on cold or sunny days;
- Beach;
- Field.
Where not to use:
- At the table to eat;

Hat types: how to wear each model
Find out which are the most used hat models and learn how to insert them in the look:
Panama hat
The Panama hat, contrary to what the name says, does not come from Panama, its origin is Ecuadorian. The model is traditionally clear with closed weaves made with the straw of the Carludovica palmata plant.
This is a hat that matches the Brazilian way of life and that’s why it’s so popular here. It’s great for the beach and adds a beachy girly feel when added to any outfit. If you want to convey that impression, bet on the model. For consultant Lilian, this is the ideal model for women who have a more sporty, casual or preppy style.
A perfect look to wear with a panama hat is denim shorts, a thin, colorful shirt and flat sandals.
Fedora Hat
The fedora model is very similar to the panama, what distinguishes it is that it is made of felt. Appeared at the beginning of the 20th century, it was initially widely used by men at the time as part of the male costume.
The fedora hat is ideal for making different combinations because it is a very democratic model and matches many styles. When worn, it gives the look an air of sophistication and makes the look more bohemian. If you have a more boho style, this is a great choice for you, according to the consultant.
Pair the hat with long pants and skirts. If you want to make the look more diverse, bet on a delicate dress.
Coconut hat
Originating at the end of the 19th century, the bowler hat has a rounder crown and well curved brims. It is also a hat used a lot by men, especially in formal situations, right after the First World War.
The bowler hat requires style to be worn, but if you want to create a more laid-back look, the model is perfect. Use it on occasions such as outings, concerts and festivals and leave your look, both winter and summer, with a more grunge look.
To compose a look with the hat, use black pieces, but if you don’t want to make the look heavy, complement it with lighter colors or printed pieces.
Clochet Hat
The most romantic among the models was tirelessly worn by the character Blair from Gossip Girl. It emerged between the 20s and 30s and was used by the most independent women of the time. Its shape is similar to the bell and is characterized by having the flaps dropped.
A reference in any romantic wardrobe, the cloche hat should be used if you want to make your look look like a little girl. Most models even add bows and delicate colors to match this style more. Use at night events that call for a more delicate look.
Dresses and delicate pieces look beautiful with the hat. If you don’t want to look so doll-like, wear more sensual clothes, like pumps and a leather coat.
Floppy Hat
With large brims and a well-rounded crown, the floppy hat is romantic and casual at the same time. Widely used by hippies in the 60’s and 70’s, the model is the darling among many women and super used in festivals.
Its hippie-chic atmosphere brings a touch of elegance to the look. It is great for warmer climates, just know how to choose the model you will use. It is also perfect in looks for cold days, with coats and heavier pieces. The important thing is to combine it properly and balanced in the look.
To compose a perfect look with it, wear it with dresses. If it’s cold, bet on a hat along with a faux fur coat.
Which hat model suits your face
Each hat is best suited to a type of face, so it is important that you first know how to distinguish your type of face, then just read the tips below carefully and choose your hat.
oval face
If you have a more oval face, that is, larger cheeks and a narrower chin, you should prefer hats in which both the brim and the crown are proportionate. Do not choose hats with a brim that is not too big or too small, so avoid using the coconut or floppy model that has a very large brim.
Round face
For rounder faces, the tip is to wear hats with a cup between medium and high and the brims should also be proportional to the size of the cup. Round-faced women should avoid the cloche model.
Square face
Square-faced women with elongated chins and foreheads should prefer models with wider brims and rounded cups and of medium to high size. The floppy model is best suited for this type of face.
triangular face
Narrow chins and the rest of the wider face define the triangular face and women who have this type of face should prefer hats with cups and rounded brims and in smaller sizes. The bowler hat is great for this type of face, while the panama and fedora hats should be avoided as they do not have a rounded crown.

Tips for not making a mistake when wearing your hat
For consultant Lilian, the best way to combine the hat in a look is to adapt it to the style of your outfit. “If you’re wearing a structured suit or dress, choose a structured hat,” she suggests. Always consider your personal style to create a harmonious look with the hat.
It is important to always pay attention to the time and place of the event you are going to, so you never make a mistake when choosing the ideal model. And yes, the hat is for all women, says Lilian. “As long as the woman has style, attitude and holds the look”, she adds.
However, consider the tips below to make the hat fit your body type:
Short stature: choose models with a medium or short brim, this helps to balance the body.
Overweight: The crown of the hat should be high and the brims medium, which will make both the face and the body thinner.
Light skin: give preference to hats in lighter colors such as white, beige, gray and pink. It is also worth betting on shades such as black, purple and blue.
Dark skin: create a contrast between the shade of the hat and your skin, so prefer colors like beige, brown, red, yellow and green.
