There is a popular belief that the hat is "not for everyone." Many people think that hats do not suit them. But most likely, they simply did not find a successful model for themselves (which, in general, is not surprising, given the meager selection of hats in Russia). Remember the films that take place in the first half of the 20th century - almost all men wear hats there, regardless of age and social status. And with a certain perseverance, everyone can successfully pick up a hat and now.

Like any other item of the correct men's wardrobe, the hat should attract attention, first of all, not to itself, but to the face and should match and compensate for its proportions. A hat has several basic dimensions that affect its proportions and how well it suits a particular face type: the width of the brim, the height of the crown, the tapering of the crown and the width of the ribbon. All this can be wider, narrower, higher or lower, and in general will give a good or not very effect.

There are no hard and fast rules governing the shape of the hat what type of personfits. Here you need to be guided by proportions, as if you were choosing a frame for a picture: it should frame the face, but not "outweigh" it; should not be comically small or comically large. If you have a large face, then the hat should be large enough; for people with a narrow face, hats with a narrower crown and wider brim are suitable; people with prominent noses should choose hats with a wide crown to "compensate" for the nose; wide brims help hide protruding ears and so on.

The way you wear your hat also affects the overall impression. In most cases, tilting the hat to the side will not hurt - a couple of degrees can completely change the picture. Experiment with the slope, but don't forget about the proportions: if you have a high forehead, do not wring your hat over the back of your head, and vice versa.

The size of the hat is just as important. It should sit tightly enough on your head so that it won't be blown away by the slightest gust of wind and it shouldn't fall when you bend over, but it shouldn't press on your temples and wrinkle your hair. Unfortunately, when ordering a hat online, you can often only guess what size it really is. As with shoe sizes, hat sizes can vary markedly from manufacturer to manufacturer. You can roughly understand your size by measuring your head with a tailor's meter across the forehead, above the ears and above the base of the skull and comparing the resulting head circumference with the manufacturer's table. But even this does not guarantee a successful landing.

It is better to err on the big side, because any good hat has a special leather rim on the inside, which allows you to slightly reduce its size if you put a piece of cotton wool or foam rubber under it in several places. At the same time, if the hat is too small for you, it can be stretched in the hat shop, but the result will depend on the material of the hat and the rim.

Like any other wardrobe item, it is advisable that the hat is in harmony with your clothes, but there is no need to choose a hat exactly in tone. The main thing is to try to combine colors at least along the spectrum: warm with warm, cold with cold. For example, both a gray and a black hat are suitable for a blue coat, and a dark green one for a brown one (although, of course, a green hat is quite serious in itself).

FELT HAT The most traditional material for hats is wool, or rather felt, which is made from wool. The fedora is the most formal of all (aside from the top hat, but only worn by Freemasons and guitarist Slash) and requires an appropriate wardrobe. It goes best with a classic suit or coat. But this does not mean that the felt hat is exclusively for people like Don Draper. The softer the felt, the more dents on the front of the crown; the warmer the colors and the more contrasting the ribbon, the less formal the hat becomes. A dark gray Homburg hat with satin-trimmed brim looks extremely formal, while a brown fedora with a curvy brim and a braided cord instead of a ribbon looks great with a worn shirt and leather jacket (see films about Indiana Jones). But no matter how relaxed the felt hat is, you can wear it only with clothes from a work or classic wardrobe, forget about the sporty style. COTTON HAT Recently, hats made from cotton and blended fabrics have become popular - these are often sold in chain clothing stores. It is more correct to attribute them to Panamas - usually they have very short brim and crown without dents. These hats are the least formal and can fit into almost any wardrobe. But at the same time, the chances of becoming like Paul Volya suddenly increase.

TWEED HAT A tweed hat is less formal than a felt hat and will be inappropriate with a business suit, but it is great (oddly enough) with tweed jackets and other elements of the "rustic" style, such as waxed jackets or rubber boots. According to the famous author of books on men's fashion, Bernard Rötzel, "tweed hats are preferred by scientists and intellectuals who do not want their foreheads and thoughts to be embarrassed by hard hats." PANAMA Ecuadorian straw fedora - Panama - is made from special straw and has a very dense weave. The better the panama, the tighter it is woven and the smoother and softer it will be to the touch. It can be worn with a summer suit or a chambray shirt and chino pants. The rest of the straw hats are less formal than the Panama hats and do not suit a suit, but they can be worn with everything else - T-shirts, sandals and other summer clothes. The only exception is the boater hat - it is already so retro that it is only suitable for professional hat wearers. COWBOY HAT Cowboy hats are only allowed to be worn by cowboys, roleplayers, sysadmins and rockers.

Don't treat hats like carnival costumes. After putting on a hat, choosing a suitable angle of inclination, try to forget about what is on your head, treat it the same way as you treat shoes. Don't make unnecessary adjustments, don't fiddle with the brim, don't look in the mirror at every opportunity - in short, act like you're not wearing a hat. Then others will perceive it more naturally.

Finally, it is worth remembering one simple rule: you should take off your hat indoors if you are going to sit there - in a restaurant, visiting a movie. In public places, such as a store or post office, this is not necessary. The same applies to hallways, elevators and corridors through which you pass, however, having reached the goal - for example, an apartment, your hat should be removed.

A good form is to slightly raise your hat when greeting acquaintances, especially if it is a lady. It may be a little old-fashioned, but the extra gallantry hasn't hurt anyone yet. And in situations where you say “thank you,” “nothing at all,” or “sorry,” you can lightly touch the front edge of the fields - “trump” is another good way to show respect for the interlocutor.

How and with what to wear a hat in autumn and winter? Where to look for inspiration?

1. Coat and hat

Almost everyone has an autumn or winter coat. Whether it's straight, fitted or trapezoidal, the hat is the perfect complement. / We replace open shoes mentally with boots. /

It won't let you down with a cape either, especially a hat with wide brims.

Wide-brimmed hats (floppy) with a rounded crown in the style of the 70s are especially popular this season - "toadstool hats" (and they remind me!).
And it is not necessary to pair them with a classic cut coat. The softness of the bend of the edge of the hat is perfectly supported by the softness of the texture and the folds of the short coat (the girl in gray).

You can, of course, dwell on the neutral color of the headdress, which will suit "everything":

And you can paint the autumn-winter weekdays with color, because it is so lacking at this time in our latitudes:

Or print. If not on a hat, then at least on a coat.

Sometimes a bright color and print of the coat itself is more than enough, combining it with a hat in a neutral color will be chic:

With a short coat from a men's wardrobe, the hat will make an organic tandem, further emphasizing your femininity or independence. To whom what?

Feel like a conqueror of the Wild West in a cowboy hat with a folded or unfolded brim in a woolen coat or an insulated trench coat with high, rough boots.

Textured coat fabric with tactile felt. Very attractive.

2. Hat with jacket

With a warm parka, it will make an irreplaceable set that will allow you to rush about on business all day, regardless of the snow or rain.

For skin lovers. Remembering Tom Sawyer, fold your hat to the back of your head to show insolence. And in a dress and a neat hat, show your imaginary insecurity.

Maybe the photos below are too late, the September heat has already gone. However, take a note, you will not regret it, after all, spring is just around the corner. And you can use them on vacation in a country where winter is not so harsh.

Of course, a hat with wool or suede jackets in ethnic style is perfect for both cold seasons.

3. Hat with a fur coat

I would like to look "expensive-rich", then expensive furs for the hat. More modern - furs are more democratic, such as sheepskin or muton.

Cheburashka is at the peak of its popularity. Shaggy, trimmed, colored. Which one is closer to whom?

For lovers of white, the favorite of the winter season, we create contrasts of light and dark. / Do not forget to put on tight and warm boots on your legs. /

In our country (in Russia) many people wear sheepskin coats, but very rarely with a hat. An unfortunate omission!

With a knitted hat, it's easy to put together a set with a fur jacket made from different materials, but it's predictable and simple. But with a felt hat ... you still need to think about how to put it on.

And finally, a life hack for those who need warmer: so that the ears don't get frozen, you can tie a silk scarf under the hat or put on a thin snood.

8 chose

Many will never dare to wear this headdress in their lives, fearing to look strange, to feel out of place. A hat with a brim looks elegant and romantic, but in order to achieve the desired effect, you need to follow some rules ...

1. Proportions.

The key to getting the right hat is proportioning. Stylists recommend the following: the width of the crown should not be narrower than the distance between the cheekbones, otherwise it will seem that the hat is too small. However, the crown should not be much wider either.

Big ladies can afford a hat with a very wide brim, it is better for miniature ones to choose narrower brims. The "span" of the shoulders will help you choose the right margins. The margins should not be too narrow, not much wider than the shoulders. When choosing a hat, it is worth examining yourself in the mirror as a whole.

2. The shape of the face.

For girls with a round face, a hat that visually lengthens the face is suitable. Therefore, it is better to prefer hats with a medium-length brim and a high crown. Owners of triangular faces should try to create asymmetry: move the hat to one side, effectively bend the brim. For a square face, wide, soft-lying margins and a round crown are suitable. And the owners of the oval face shape are the most fortunate, they will suit different shapes of hats, it is worth experimenting.

3. Color.

The hat should be in harmony with the outfit, but not merge with it. On the other hand, the hat should match the tone. Stylist tip: Try not to match the color of your hat with the main shade of your clothing. Option: match gloves, bag or scarf in color to your hat.

4. Nice additions.

If you want to decorate your hat (feather, flower, ribbon), according to the rules of etiquette, it is better to do it on the right side. Men adorn the hats on the left side. However, hat etiquette is not so relevant. For example, among the "hat" rules: do not wear a hat with a very wide brim until five in the evening.

5. Hair.

Many do not wear hats because their hairstyle suffers. The simplest hairstyle that makes hats look great is loose hair. Alternatively: a low ponytail. And the bangs can be divided in half or combed to the side.

Finally, you will understand that it's all in the bag!
