Men's hats. The most unusual headdresses of Russian wives

The variety of styles is amazing - modern trends offer both simple and concise models, as well as intricate extravagant products. In order not to lose face in the store, first read the names and descriptions of the types of hats, and then go shopping.

Types of winter hats: beanie style

Among the styles of winter hats, the most popular is the beanie - the product fits the head tightly and in the classic version does not have protruding volumetric details. Initially, such hats were worn by representatives of working professions, for example, builders who had to work outdoors in the cold for a long time.

The beanie is as comfortable and warm as possible, and due to the elastic material it has an almost universal size, you can buy it without trying it on. Then students chose such a headdress, because it was convenient to sew the emblem of an educational institution to a smooth hat. Today, beanies are used as part of the most unusual images.

Beanie can be knitted from a wide variety of yarns, even from fur ribbons. They also make beanies from natural fur - a whole skin, such a model, complete with a leather down jacket, looks chic. Monochromatic beanies are often knitted with original knitting, for example, with braids or knobs; due to the ornament, the headdress looks elegant and fashionable.

In warm weather, try on openwork beanies - incredibly delicate and sophisticated products.

A beanie with a smooth texture may look unusual due to the color scheme - young people love bright striped hats, and the stripes can be located both horizontally and vertically. An ornament or pattern in the forehead area can be knitted with threads of a contrasting color. Beanies of a sports plan are decorated with stripes, romantic models - with knitted flowers or brooches, glamorous options - with rhinestones, stones, beads, sequins.

Sometimes knitted beanies are made double, the inner layer can also be knitted, as well as knitted or fleece. A double hat will be not only warm, but also original - it can be double-sided.

If the inside is a different color, the hat can be worn in two different ways, choosing the right color in accordance with the clothes and the overall style of a particular image. Sometimes the hat is made a little longer, due to which a lapel is formed. Reversible hats with a lapel are a suitable solution for those who have a wardrobe designed in a single color scheme. Beanies can be complemented with large pom-poms on the crown or tassels on the laces.

Youth models are decorated with "ears", sewing two tight triangles to the top of the product. For warm weather, knitted hats are suitable, which are often decorated with prints, appliqués, rhinestones or stripes. A beanie made of solid yarn, decorated with rhinestones or a brooch, can be safely worn even with a fur coat or short fur coat.

Beanies are ideal for down jackets and sports jackets, bombers and formal coats. In warm weather, beanies are worn with tracksuits, blazers, jumpers, sweaters and even dresses, sometimes complemented by a scarf made of the same material.

sock hat

The sock can be called one of the styles of women's beanie hats - this is an elongated version of the beanie, which tightly fits the head from below, and the upper part rises above the crown due to dense material or hangs down.

The hanging part can be laid back or on its side. The sock was originally an attribute of the men's wardrobe, but, like many men's things, it migrated to the category of unisex models.

It is believed that socks were the first to be worn by representatives of hip-hop culture, which at one time attracted attention with stretched knitted hats. Today, fans of grunge style, youth style and oversized style love socks, and many fashionistas successfully combine socks with elegant coats and raincoats.

Like the beanie, the sock is knitted in a variety of knits, from simple rib to intricate braids. Knitted and fleece socks are popular - the latter are also attractive because they are not picky in care, as well as incredibly soft and pleasant to the touch.

But a soft fleece hat does not always fit snugly around the head circumference, so knitted options with a tight elastic band along the bottom edge are more practical and comfortable. In the trend of the model with a lapel, you can adjust the width of the lapel, thereby adjusting the length of the sock.

There can be a large pompom at the end of the sock, and the area of ​​​​contact with the head is decorated with applications, prints, stripes, brooches, rhinestones and sequins, beads and beads. You can even meet a fur hat-sock - it looks youthful and luxurious at the same time.

The sock can be moved to the back of the head, exposing the forehead - this option is suitable for those who wear bangs. Socks are very suitable for owners of long hair, you can braid pigtails - this hairstyle also harmonizes perfectly with a hanging headdress.

Socks are great for creating urban looks, they are combined with biker jackets, down jackets, bombers, coats and short coats. With frankly classic things, you should not wear such an accessory, but it is quite possible to fit it into a business style if you carefully consider the rest of the details of the image.

Types of knitted hats for women: Helsinki style (with photo)

Among the types of knitted hats, the Helsinki style has recently stood out - this is a headdress knitted with a very large viscous thick yarn. Such accessories have a unique charm, look at ease, and now they are also approaching the top of the fashion Olympus.

Such hats fit perfectly into the Scandinavian style, but other styles also accept the use of coarse knitting. Helsinki looks cozy and warm, suits almost everyone. Youth versions of Helsinki are knitted with a 1x1 ribbing using melange yarn, but stocking knitting is most often used, or, as it is also called, front surface. Stocking stitching from the inside looks different, so in such a product you can form an original lapel.

Helsinki with a lapel is one of several types of such hats, in the photo you see amazing models for fashionistas of all ages:

Laconic Helsinki beanies are also popular - due to the large knitting, such accessories look extraordinarily impressive. Sometimes there are Helsinki socks in the style of oversized, as well as Helsinki with a pompom.

Hats of this kind are rarely decorated with decorative details; small beads or sequins are out of place here. Helsinki can be complemented with a coarse knit scarf; as part of the set, things look even more unusual and attractive.

Wearing trendy helsinki with natural fur coats or strict classic clothes is not recommended, but you can experiment with long straight coats. Wear a black coat with black skinny jeans with hot pink Helsinki and pumps of the same shade - you get a harmonious glamorous look without a hint of pretentiousness.

A draped dark gray coat can be worn with a muted mom jeans and sneakers, complementing a gray Helsinki outfit and a leather-look backpack. A romantic straight coat in dusty pink with light cream Helsinki is a gentle look for a young fashionista.

Helsinki pairs perfectly with bomber jackets, oversized down coats, a cocoon or a down duvet. Graceful jackets made of grass-yarn successfully coexist with Helsinki in a bright contrasting shade. Feel free to wear Helsinki with cardigans with a characteristic Scandinavian pattern, as well as leather jackets and denim parkas.

Hats in the form of a turban and a turban-shawl

Such a headdress is typical for residents of Muslim countries, and for men. But designers and stylists draw inspiration from everywhere, so the turban has long ceased to be something religious and is firmly rooted in the wardrobes of fashionistas.

What is the difference between a turban and a turban? In fact, a turban is a scarf or scarf wound around the head. There are many ways to wind a turban, but when it comes to modern fashion, you should think about practicality.

The turban is smaller in size than the turban, and its characteristic feature is a triangle in the forehead area - the lower edge of the turban is straight. If you have a turban in front of you, then in the center you will see crossed strips of matter. In the world of modern fashion, a turban and a turban have become synonymous - both words mean a headdress that imitates a scarf or scarf wrapped around the head.

The most popular styles of knitted hats for women are turbans with a characteristic crosshair on the forehead, which is often decorated with a large brooch. It is not necessary to tie a modern turban - the headdress is worn like a beanie, and the crosshair acts as an exclusively decorative element.

A compact hat in the form of a turban can be worn with long or medium length loose hair, but voluminous turbans are best worn with hair hidden under them. If you have a round face, wear a laconic turban that opens your forehead as much as possible.

In the photo - styles of knitted hats in the form of a turban, which are suitable for owners of an elongated face, these are mainly hats that reach the eyebrows:

For a cold winter, turbans made of woolen or angora yarn are suitable, for a warm autumn - knitted options. Hats-turbans in the form of a scarf protect the head from overheating in the hot season, and also complement evening outfits.

It is not recommended to combine such styles of hats for women with sportswear, including sneakers. But classic coats and jackets are in perfect harmony with the turban. Cropped blazers and youth-style leather jackets can be complemented with a thin turban, completing the outfit with oxfords or pumps.

Turbans are perfectly combined with fur vests and high boots, as well as fashion glasses, including sunglasses. Of course, oriental-style tunics and robe coats are suitable, which can be complemented with completely European mom jeans.

Graceful capes and long gloves also accept the neighborhood with a turban of a bright shade. Fitted coats, raincoats and even semi-military trench coats in the hands of skilled stylists turn into elegant companions of turban hats.

Types of hats on the head: universal berets

Among the types of hats on the head, the beret is the most versatile and, oddly enough, the most feminine style. Today, the beret is associated not only with military uniforms or romantic Parisians - fans of various clothing styles have chosen this headdress.

Berets differ from each other in color, the presence and type of decor, the volume of the main part, the width of the chestnut, and berets can be worn in different ways. Winter berets are sewn from woolen fabrics, drape, felt, fleece, knitted from a variety of yarns.

Openwork berets are suitable for the summer, velvet products, cashmere and knitwear accessories are found. A beret can be found even among the types of women's leather hats - these are stylish and bold options for real fashionistas.

If the beret does not have excessive volume or is made of dense fabric and holds its shape well, then it can be worn in one single way. If the beret is sufficiently voluminous and made of soft pliable material, the main part of the headdress can be shifted to the back of the head, forehead or to one side, forming an asymmetric model.

If you have long hair, try wearing a beret with it pulled back to the back of your head.

Ideally, if at the same time bangs are visible - oblique or straight. For cutting ladders, this way of wearing a beret is also suitable. You can put the beret on the forehead, forming a kind of visor, this is how it is proposed to wear scarlet "French" berets.

The most popular option is to move it to one side, girls with a wide face prefer such options. So that a large beret does not lose its shape and lies the way you put it throughout the walk, you can fasten the fabric from the inside with a pin or invisible.

The beret is firmly rooted among the fashionable styles of hats for any season - it is worn with fur coats and light dresses. Looks great with a military-style beret with a parka or camouflage shirt jacket, black trousers or a straight skirt, high boots with a steady heel or coarse lace-up boots.

Woolen berets in dark green or dark red, as well as black leather berets, are in perfect harmony with military paraphernalia. Try on a black trench coat with a leather beret, smoothing out the aggressive look with elegant pumps and a bright neckerchief.

The classic style involves combining a beret with fitted coats and raincoats, a sheath dress, a pantsuit, a jacket with ¾ sleeves or a Chanel-style jacket. You can try on a beret as part of a nautical-style look - pick up a blue parka jacket, black trousers, red boots and a bright red beret.

Under the park, it is best to wear a vest, and complement the trousers with a belt with a metal buckle. A blue parka can be successfully replaced with a white windbreaker or blazer.

The beret looks the most advantageous if you choose a color that contrasts with the shade of outerwear. The texture of materials can also be contrasting. A red cashmere beret is perfect with a light brown corduroy jacket, and a black drape beret is perfect with a white leather coat.

The beret looks great with cropped capri pants and a blazer worn over a T-shirt. Even semi-sports outfits can be complemented with stylish berets - an olympic shirt of a discreet color and the same trousers with elastic cuffs will perfectly withstand the neighborhood with a beret, and it is better to choose oxford shoes without a heel.

Equally charming, he takes in the company of a short fur coat and stocking boots, as well as breeches and slip-ons. Please note that even a knitted beret does not always look good with a knitted scarf. You can warm up with a scarf or scarf, as well as a shirt-front or cape.

What to wear with earflaps of different types

Ushanka can be called the warmest of all winter types of hats, especially if it is made of fur or lined with fur. Hanging details cover the ears and cheeks, protecting the face from frost and wind. If desired, they can be tied under the chin to further warm up, or they can be removed up, forming a three-dimensional model of the headdress.

Among the types of hats with earflaps, it is worth highlighting sports or ski models made of polyester or membrane fabric with fur lining. Suede and leather models will fit into the urban style, and knitted earflaps with fleece lining will become the most budget option.

A fur earflap goes well with a short fur coat, but the shade of the fur should not match. Wear this set with jeans and boots with fur trim, which can match either the fur on the hat or the material of the fur coat.

Knitted earflaps are in perfect harmony with suede boots or boots, as well as fashionable colored ugg boots. You can try on an earflap with a jacket or down jacket with fur trim, but make sure that the outerwear is not too voluminous. Ushanka is great for a military-style look - a military park, breeches, army boots.

With a ski suit, earflaps will make a harmonious set, which can be supplemented with puffy boots or ski boots. A fur vest is a great pair of earflaps, wear it with jeans, high leather boots or a smooth textured jumper.

Sheared fur earflaps can be worn with a sheepskin coat or with outerwear made of combined materials. Wear bright Scandinavian-style earflaps with light-colored items - quilted jackets, ponchos, puffy boots, leggings and knitted leggings.

Mink and muton hat styles

Among the different types of hats, fur products stand apart - they can be of various styles, while always looking luxurious and modern. For several seasons, fur earflaps have been in trend - voluminous models made of long-haired fur in natural and unnatural colors.

At the ends of the "ears" there can be fur pompoms, which makes the headdress a little more frivolous and youthful. The trend is fur caps, which are ideally combined with raincoats and fitted coats and help to form the image of a business lady.

The boyarka looks elegant and expensive - a round-shaped hat with a leather insert at the top. This style of fur hat is ideal for a coat with a fur collar or fur trim on the hood.

The hat fits perfectly into the military style, but it can be used to create more feminine looks with leather jackets and even down jackets. Often, a hat is complemented with a fur "tail", which gives a perky and original touch to the whole outfit. Such a headdress is not recommended to be combined with voluminous outerwear.

For the manufacture of hats, both natural and artificial fur are used, but keep in mind that the artificial analogue will be less warm. Recently, astrakhan hats have come into fashion - natural astrakhan is famous for its wide color palette, but colored options are also often found.

The advantage of this material is that dyeing does not affect the durability of the fur. Astrakhan hats can be sewn on a dense frame, berets and even socks, which are very popular with young people. Astrakhan products are decorated with chains, brooches, large rhinestones.

The styles of muton hats are no less diverse - in the photo you see beanies, berets, kubankas, earflaps and even cloche hats made of this material:

Mouton perfectly warms in frosts and easily withstands wet snow, and the low cost makes such hats affordable and in demand among ladies with a wide range of incomes.

The styles of mink hats amaze with their variety - the model with ears looks flirty and is very popular with young fashionistas. A similar style will help balance the proportions of the face if you have a wide jaw and a narrow forehead. A mink turban is an option for self-confident ladies, wear such a headdress with tight-fitting compact clothing.

Rabbit, raccoon and fox fur hat styles

Rabbit is most often used to create knitted fur hats. The skin of the animal is cut into strips, which are used as yarn. Such products are cheaper than natural ones, while they are excellently warm, and they look not only solid, but also original.

Rabbit is not too expensive material, and a knitted rabbit is even more affordable. However, the fur of this animal does not differ in durability - it is quickly wiped off, although it is incredibly pleasant to the touch. Knitted beanies are made from fox fur, as well as natural cubans.

A snow-white fox hat is ideal for a black leather down jacket. Headdresses made of wolf fur look very original, most often they are made in the form of earflaps with long “ears”.

If you want to stand out from the crowd at all costs and attract attention, choose a fox hat. This soft, bright and warm accessory will decorate both a youthful and romantic look, as well as a business lady's outfit.

Silver fox models are especially beautiful and spectacular - they suit absolutely all women. Warm, wear-resistant and inexpensive sheepskin is no longer considered a second-class fur - modern production technologies make it possible to dress this material so that it is not inferior in status to sable!

A variety of styles of sheepskin hats will allow each lady to choose a model that perfectly complements her appearance and emphasizes the natural charm. If you choose an inexpensive military-style hat, pay attention to raccoon fur - it goes well with classic parkas and army pea coats.

Popular styles of mink hats

Such a style of mink hats as a hood is gaining popularity - it does not have to be combined with a fur coat made of the same material. Fashionistas successfully complement leather coats and down jackets with mink hoods. Fur shawls are very interesting - they resemble the previous style in the form of a hood, to which fabric is sewn from below.

With the help of the fabric part, the hat is fixed in the neck area, and the collar of the outerwear hides the fabric - a harmonious outfit is formed. Mink caps with a visor are in trend - they fit perfectly into the military style and are combined with high boots, officer uniforms and breeches.

Hats and caps made of mink are most often complemented with such a detail as a tail, which gives originality and sophistication to the headdress. Mink beanies are called balls, they tightly fit the head without creating excessive volume. Balls from sheared and plucked mink look great.

Hats-socks, which are also made from mink fur, are always held in high esteem by fashionistas of the young generation. Models look incredibly stylish, worn back or sideways, complemented by chains and pompoms.

The warmest will be a mink earflap, often models are made in Scandinavian or ethnic style. It is impossible not to mention the mink beret, which will help make your outfit sophisticated and as comfortable as possible.

Hats in the form of a crown and other models for children

Young women of fashion from an early age tend to imitate mothers and models from the covers of magazines, but in the first place in children's fashion are the safety of the child and his comfort. You can start listing the types of children's hats with traditional beanies - just choose a bright yarn or an interesting pattern, and the model ceases to be boring or overly "adult".

Children's beanies are decorated with all kinds of decor, but stones, rhinestones or brooches are unacceptable for babies - they can easily get hurt. And for teenagers, sparkling jewelry is very suitable - girls are happy to modernize accessories on their own to look original and fashionable.

Beanies for crumbs are decorated with knitted flowers, fabric appliqués, original knitting, pompoms, tassels are used. Models with ears are interesting, and the ears can imitate the ears of a real animal: a bunny, a fox, a squirrel. In the forehead area, you can also embroider the muzzle of the animal.

You can knit eyes on a hat, and embroider a nose and mustache on a scarf or shirtfront - children will be delighted with such a set. A good solution for a little princess would be a hat in the form of a crown - this is a beanie with a lapel made of contrasting yarn, made in the form of a crown, that is, with large teeth along the edge.

At the top of each prong, you can place a sparkling pebble or rhinestone. Older girls are happy to wear elongated beanies, that is, socks, but for babies this style is unacceptable - the hanging crown will constantly cling to surrounding objects, there is a high probability of losing a hat.

Teenagers love berets and turbans, in which they can feel like real fashionistas.

Among the types of hats for children, earflaps are very popular - if adult models are rarely tied, then children's options must be fixed with laces. It is better if there are knitted ribbons instead of laces - thin, stiff laces can cut into the skin of the chin and cause discomfort.

Children's winter earflaps are made on sheepskin, demi-season ones are made on fleece. A bonnet can be called a variety of earflaps - this style resembles a beanie with triangular inserts sewn to it in the area of ​​​​the ears. A braid is sewn to the inserts, with the help of which the bonnet is fixed on the baby's head.

Initially, a cotton or flannelette cap was worn under a knitted hat to keep it warmer and the yarn did not irritate the child's skin. Now knitted bonnets perfectly cope with the solo part, they are knitted from hypoallergenic yarn and reliably warm.

The hoods are very comfortable and warm - the hood looks like a hood, combined with a shirt-front, thanks to which the headdress additionally plays the role of a scarf. The hood does not fit the head, does not press or rub, so the baby is comfortable in such clothes.

A hat-pipe is similar to a bonnet in its functionality - it is knitted in the form of a straight fabric and sewn together, forming an absolutely straight sleeve. One hole of the pipe is intended for the face, the second for the neck, and draperies are formed from excess material under the chin.

Sometimes the hole for the face is supplemented with a drawstring around the edge so that you can pull off the hat and protect your ears as much as possible during strong winds. A hat-helmet is even more convenient for kids - it is made according to the principle of a hood, but at the same time it tightly fits the head, neck and shoulders, leaving only the eyes, nose and mouth of the child open.

A hat is a very broad concept that includes a lot of styles and models of hats. Be sure to consider the type of your appearance when choosing a hat, as well as your own style - the accessory must fit into your every look.

It is difficult to say how many variations of hat styles exist. This unique element of clothing is used as an accessory, protects the head from cold and overheating, serves as an identifier for various nationalities, can sometimes tell about the status of a person, or is an obligatory attribute of a profession. This article will tell you about the names of various hats.

"Professional" hats

"Master's Cap"

In our country, they are gradually beginning to adopt the Western tradition of wearing a quadrangular academic cap by graduates. Initially, only graduates with a master's degree had the right to wear this type of headgear, but gradually this requirement was no longer mandatory. The correct full name sounds like a "square academic cap", but in Russian the short forms "confederate" or "master's cap" have long taken root. Interestingly, even a ribbon with a tassel has its own name - liripip. Its color can serve as a distinction for the best graduates.

Jester's cap

An integral attribute of the jester's costume is a cap with bells. Bells at The movements of the jester rang funny and amused the audience. The jester's cap usually has three ends - they symbolize two donkey ears and a tail.

Cap

Sailors also have their own signature headdress - a cap. They exist of several types, depending on the rank of employees. Basically, they differ from each other with stripes. The private's cap got its own name - a peakless cap.

"Talking" hat names

Sometimes the very name of the hat speaks of its purpose.

It is not difficult to guess that the opera hat was intended for going to the theater. This type of cylinder was very popular in the second half of the 19th century. Its peculiarity was that the design allowed the top of the hat to be folded, and from a bulky accessory it turned into a neat pancake. Now this kind of headdress can only be found in a theater or circus.

Nightcap

The once-popular nightcap allowed residents to protect their heads from hypothermia in the cold season, and in women - also did not allow the hair to get very tangled. The night cap also performed a hygienic function, protecting the head from lice. This headgear was used and not for its intended purpose. For example, they put it on the head of a person sentenced to death by hanging, which made it possible to hide the expression on his face during the agony.

Hats of the peoples of the world

Jewish kippah

A small Jewish headdress is called a kippah or yarmulke. They wear it all the time often wearing over it a black hat with fields, the style and material of which corresponds to the position of a person in society. The name of such a hat depends on its variety, of which there are 34. In Judaism, a headdress is a sign of contact with the Almighty. Men wear it all the time, showing by this that they are aware of the existence of God, understand his wisdom and value Him above their own head, the most significant and important part of the human body.

Vietnamese non-la

The famous conical hats of the Vietnamese are called non-la. They are made from banana leaves, and not from bamboo stalks, as in many neighboring nations. Although such a headdress is not durable, it has reliably entered into use due to the speed of manufacture and the availability of materials.

Greek fesi

Fesi - a traditional Greek hat that does not have a crown, but with an obligatory tassel and a patterned border. Both men and women wear this headdress. Men's fesi are usually smaller, because women still need to place a lush hairstyle under the cap. It is the fesi that can be seen on the heads of the Greek guards who guard the parliament building on Syntagma Square in Athens.

Scottish tem-o-shenter (or balmoral)

A checkered Scottish beret with a small pom-pom is known as a tam-o-shanter. Own it acquired its name thanks to Robert Burns, or rather his poem of the same name. All Scottish clans have their own colors of costumes, including berets. This people even has a special system in which it is recorded how many threads of each color and in what sequence are used to weave the strip. Today, this beret is better known as balmoral, named after the royal residence, which is guarded by regiments of the British army.

Yemeni madhalla

Unusual tall hats called madhalla are worn by the shepherds of Hadhramaut. The sight is not for the faint of heart. Dressed in all black, their faces closed, slits for the eyes and tall hats reminiscent of witches, Yemeni women inspire fear even in the locals. But such a hat is not just a tribute to traditions. It allows shepherdesses to perform their duties under the scorching sun at temperatures above 50 degrees. After all, this form provides a layer of cool air over the head of the girls.

Spanish sombrero

Initially, the Spaniards called sombrero any hat, but this name stuck. only for its Mexican variety. Traditional sombreros are made from straw, while felt ones are a ceremonial option, which is now mainly used only as a souvenir. The huge brim of the hat allows you to protect from the scorching sun not only the head and neck of the owner, but also his shoulders.

Types of caps

Caps also have their own specific names.

  • For example, a baseball cap is a cap made of lightweight material with a long peak that protects the eyes from the sun. It is interesting that she takes her story back in the distant 1860s, when representatives of the Brooklyn Excelsiors team first dressed her prototype.
  • A casket is a men's cap, resembling a cap, without a crown and band.
  • But a distinctive feature of one of the most popular Soviet headdresses of the beginning of the last century - a cap - is the presence of a high band.

Hats are indispensable attributes of women's wardrobe in the autumn-winter period. Knitted models remain at the peak of popularity, the stylistic diversity of which makes it easy to match any fashionable look. If you want to emphasize your own individuality, creating beautiful and relevant images, you must be responsible in choosing the appropriate headdress. In this article we will tell you what types of women's winter hats exist, their names and main characteristics.

Practicality and versatility

This description includes all types of knitted hats that have no age restrictions. Simple knitted hats that fit snugly around the head and are held without the help of additional ties are called beanies. They can be with a lapel, a pom-pom (one or more), a logo, funny animal ears or horns.

A variety of hats in the traditional style are stocking hats, sock hats and models. All these models are united by the fact that they do not tightly fit the head in the back of the head. The loose end of the cap can be styled in a variety of ways to create new trendy looks. Such models are preferred by young girls, as well as those who dress in a sporty style.

Earflaps have been incredibly popular over the past few years. Large knit models fit perfectly into the urban style. You can wear a hat with earflaps, decorated with pompoms made of yarn or fur, with a down jacket, with a youth coat, with a parka jacket.

Knitted hats-helmets are less popular, as they make the image extravagant, which not every girl likes. If you are not afraid of fashionable experiments, take a closer look at hats-helmets. It is possible that these hats will allow you to look stylish and spectacular in winter.

Classic and modern

Fur hats have not lost their relevance either. The types of fur hats cannot boast of variety, but thanks to the color schemes, the texture of the fur and the decorative elements, it is always possible to choose a beautiful headdress for the existing outerwear. Traditional kubankas are being replaced by laconic simple models called Cossack hats, tightly fitting the head, as well as youth hats with earflaps. We recommend paying attention to earflaps made of fur, suede or leather.

The headdress is a sign of distinction and status. Of course, in some hats, the head is also comfortable in cold or hot weather.

But, even fulfilling their functional role, hats, especially for men, always informed others about the social, national affiliation of their owner, and at the same time about the size of his wallet.

This, perhaps the most common, headdress was identified by archaeologists already in ancient Egyptian images. A man in a straw pileus appears on the walls of a Thebes tomb.

Pileus was reincarnated as an ancient Greek pethasos. God Hermes liked to flaunt in a hat - petatos on his head and winged sandals on his feet.

How the British hated a baseball cap

Over time, the headdress, which served as protection against sunstroke, acquired a sports direction. For the first time it happened at the royal races in England.

The dress code required those who came to the equestrian competitions to have a hat on their heads. The custom, over time, migrated to America, to the Kentucky Derby, and then to the baseball field.

It was the Americans who came up with the idea to supply the heads of their baseball players with the same hats with large visors, designed to expand the field of view on a sunny day.

This is how baseball caps were born, which, having stepped over the boundaries of the stadium, covered the heads of ordinary Americans with a solid baseball array. And not just Americans.

How many hats does a gentleman need?

A hat is a universal headdress for a man.

She has the ability to:

  • protect from the sun
  • from bad weather,
  • from prying eyes;
  • give the image a finished look;
  • emphasize the social status of the owner.

And therefore, do not be surprised that there are many types of men's hats. Let's designate the "five" leaders.

Democratic Trilby

The most common and democratic model of men's hats. With a narrow brim (edge), slightly turned up, and a central dent on the crown, this model is its own among classic hats.

And in the company of informal hats, she feels very at ease. Especially after they began to make it not only from rabbit wool.

The tweed version of the trilby loves the tweed suit and horse racing. Trilby made of straw, wool blend and colorful nylon loves show business and trendy youth hangouts.

But! This model of a man's hat does not suit large, corpulent men. On them, she does not look solid, "toy."

Sunny panama

The second most popular men's hat model and the first among summer models.

Originally from Ecuador. Straw panamas were woven from a local plant, which were quickly appreciated by Europeans. Real panama hats, according to their fans, are light, durable, hygroscopic - capable of holding up to 4 liters of water without spilling a single drop on their owner.

Light trousers, soft moccasins, sunglasses and ... Panama! The image of a vacationer on the sea coast is ready!

Although the panama brims are wide enough to hide the sun from the eyes, they should not be excessive and sagging.

courageous fedora

Typical masculine hat. No wonder it was chosen by Indiana Jones! He wore a fedora with three pronounced dents on the crown (crown): two in front, on the sides and one in the center of the crown.

The fields of the fedora are soft, they can be either lowered or raised. It depends on the gentleman's intentions - whether he wants to hide his interest in the lady or, on the contrary, demonstrate it. By the way, the dents on the hat - for the same purpose - for three fingers, so that it would be more convenient to lift the hat, bowing when meeting with familiar persons.

Fedora "walks arm in arm" with straight trousers, shirts and light jackets.

business homburg

This elegant and “sleek” version of the fedora comes from Germany. It is said that the Prince of Wales, while relaxing in a German resort, noticed a model of felt hats of local men. She had narrow, turned-up fields and a large dent in the center of the crown.

Elegant and unusual, the homburg model quickly took root in England as a formal version of the men's hat. Homburg looks great with a classic suit and fits perfectly into a business style.

Universal spanking pie

The Pork Pie Hat is so named for its resemblance to an English culinary product. The versatility of the model lies in the fact that it is worn both in summer (pork pie made of straw) and autumn-spring (pork pie made of felt).

It is thanks to its versatility, as well as its informal look, that this model is a landmark in British style.

Porky pie hat goes well with a narrow, fitted jacket and chinos, with boat shoes and moccasins.

What is the difference between a cap and a cap

Both the kepi and the cap are a kind of hat, their close relatives living outside the city.

The most classic version of the cap - has a rounded shape and a hard front edge. There are tweed, wool and cotton versions of this type of cap. The silk lining hints that this cap is not “from ordinary” and is related to the noble family of hats.

Today, the English cap is worn in everyday life - casual style - with anything: with shorts, jeans, coats, jackets, shirts, jumpers.

Octagon cap

She is also a “newspaper hat”, she is also “Gatsby”, she is also a “postman's cap”.

A relative of the English cap - only about eight corners and with a button-button at the top.

She loves denim style, scarves and tight pants.

Baseball cap

Sports relative of hats. It has a soft crown on the head and a hard large visor. Invented specifically for athletes, this headdress has long been chosen by all ages, genders and classes.

In addition to popular love, this type of headdress has one more feature: it has not changed at all over time.

Cap

It was created by the military, jealous of a sports baseball cap. The peak of the cap is smaller and the top is flat. There is another difference - in the frontal part of the crown of the cap there is no plastic seal like in a baseball cap.

It is also called the "forage hat". This is a military version of an octagonal cap with a short peak and a band over a soft octagonal crown. The visor of the cap is hard and is made of leather or plastic.

Invented for the army, the cap found itself perfectly in the “civilian”, chose the casual style and made friends with bikers.

The cap has a brother - a cap. He never served in the army. It is preferred by those who want something more unusual than a simple cap. The cap, like the cap, has a soft crown and a narrow band on the welt.

Bandana on your head!

The cowboy neckerchief migrated to the head rather quickly. Fleeing from a sunstroke, they came up with the idea to tie it around the head and fasten it with a knot at the back.

Note: for fashionistas and those who like to stand out, there is another option for using a bandana. It is tied over a trilby hat, around the crown, giving a perky look to a quite classic model.

How to wear arafatka: 3 ways

This checkered Palestinian shawl has come into fashion relatively recently. Soared to the peak of popularity along with Jack Sparrow, this headdress of the Middle East, quickly learned to wear in Europe.

Method number 1 - Berber

Arafatka is tied on her head with a turban. A scarf, folded diagonally in the form of a large triangle, is thrown over the head.

The right end is twisted and drawn to the left behind the neck, then it wraps around the head up and above the forehead. The tip is hidden at the back of the head.

They also do the same with the left end of the arafatka.

Method number 2 - "mask"

This method is good when you need to protect your face from dust, sand, sun. The scarf is initially folded in the same way as in the first method.

  1. The resulting triangle is placed on the head, as a scarf is usually placed.
  2. The left end is twisted into a not tight tourniquet and led away under the chin to the right.
  3. The right end, in a straightened form, wraps the face and goes to the left ear.
  4. There he meets the left end and ties it into a knot.

The mask is ready.

Method number 3 - with a ring

The scarf is folded diagonally, placed on the head. Both ends (right and left) are taken back to the back of the head.

From above, the structure is fixed with a special ring - rendeli. One of the ends comes back forward.

Winter hat rules

The main requirement for a winter hat is to be warm. Moreover, it should be warm to the head, and ears, and forehead, and cheeks, and neck. This is not a whim when it comes to real frost, with a decent minus on the thermometer.

Humanity has not yet come up with anything warmer than a hat with earflaps.

The best earflaps have:

  • fur side,
  • retractable ears with ties,
  • fur visor.

If winter has not yet come into its own and the temperature is only tending to zero, it is quite possible to get by with a felt hat (homburg, fedora) or a woolen cap (octagonal), or a warmed winter baseball cap.

If the style is not formal, then knitted hats with or without a lapel will be appropriate. There are also options with fringes and pom-poms, but they are more suitable for sports trips out of town and other fun pastimes.

The main thing is to be convenient and comfortable. However, men's fashion, in terms of a variety of hats, does not lack and serves not only as a measure of protection for bright men's minds from the tricks of the weather, but also as their decoration, a stylish accessory.

A fashionable and stylish wardrobe cannot do without hats. The ability to choose the right hat for a particular image is a great art.

Headgear is a delicate matter

There is a well-known case from the life of the famous artist Alexander Vertinsky, when he ordered a coat from a very good German tailor. It turned out excellent. It sat like a glove, successfully emphasizing the stately figure of the customer. The impeccable taste and sense of style of the talented artist suggested to him that the headdress should correspond to the nature of the sewn thing, but, no matter how Alexander Nikolayevich suffered, he could not pick it up. They even tried changing the coat. Still, there was something wrong with the package. In the end, for fun, they tried on an officer's hat. And, lo and behold, it turned out to be a perfectly harmonious ensemble. It turned out that the tailor specialized in uniforms for the army, and military overcoats are good only with caps.

In fact, to the situation, to the existing wardrobe, while not forgetting to take into account personal external data, it is not easy to choose a headdress. In this article we will talk about different types of hats and, hopefully, we will help in mastering the science of compiling competent and complete images.

Universal headwear

Listing popular types of hats is not so difficult. Unlike hats, they can be counted on the fingers. There are a lot of synonyms for the same headdress. Let's figure out what the types of hats that are relevant today and their names are.

We often hear or meet the following words on the pages of fashion magazines: beanie, beret, kippah, Cossack hat, cap, ambassador, balaclava, pipe, collar, hat, earflaps, malachai, kubanka, skullcap, fez, boyarka, cap, cap, cloche , budennovka, slouch, gogol, three-piece, bomber, trapper, kubanka, three-piece, yarmulke, tem, cap, panama, grandmother (emphasis on the letter "u"), kerchief hat, cap, etc. All these are the names of hats . And all of them are just variations of four or five models of hats, invented a very long time ago.

Modern fashion designers constantly turn to historical costumes to create new collections. Classic hats undergo various, sometimes dramatic changes. Visors, lapels, bands appear and disappear in them, the shape and methods of drapery of the crown change. There are constant experiments with materials.

Beret

Beret is the modern name for the Russian cap, and in Scotland it is called tem-o-shenter, or tem. Both the cap and the tem are headdresses with a high band close to the head and a loose crown, which is a solid circle or wedges sewn into a circle. The classic tam-o-shenter is made from a thin checkered woolen fabric. An indispensable detail is a pom-pom at the crown. Cap - often a plain hat made of coarse fabric. In the old days, dandies decorated it with flowers, buttons, decorative pins, etc.

The beret has long been an accessory for both men's and women's wardrobes. Berets are the headdress of military personnel. In our country in 2005 they completely replaced caps.

At one time, berets began to be made from natural fur, giving the product rigidity and static. This was achieved due to the dense inner cover of the drape. Now fur berets have become soft and plastic again. Recently, the species has been replenished with berets knitted from twisted strips of natural fur.

Variety of hoods

Some people completely refuse to wear hats, saying that they do not like hats. Behind these words most often lies the inability to choose and wear them correctly. This is sad, because the head is what we look at first. In winter, in frost, it is dangerous to walk with an uncovered head - you can get sick, and your hair is very spoiled from dry air and a sharp temperature drop.

With an active reluctance to buy a hat, a hat in the form of a hood fastened or sewn to the neck of a coat or jacket can help out.

The Cossacks of the Russian army had a hood as an obligatory element of the uniform - this is a very convenient and practical removable hood. Modern designers offer to use this attribute of a military uniform as a fashionable head accessory. Initially, a hood with long ends a la pea jacket entered the wardrobe of civilians only as a replacement for a hat for women. Now young men also wear it willingly.

Hoods are sewn from fabric, knitted from woolen threads, as well as from twisted strips of fur. The choice of materials is great. The main requirement for such a product is that it must be made of plastic, well-draped material. The headband is allowed in a variety of shapes - round, of two or more parts, like almost all jackets, and also with a long triangular end, like the hoods of the Capuchin monks. The hood can fit snugly around the head, or it can be loose, resembling a cape or bedspread. It is trimmed with fur, decorated with ornaments, knitted using a fantasy weave of threads. However, do not get carried away with excessive decoration. It is possible that this element, made of a plain material with a smooth texture, will most organically fit into the ensemble. Several options for stylish bows can be seen in the photographs presented in the article.

Balaklava

A kind of hood is a knitted hat, called a balaclava. It is a hood covering the head, elongated in the neck area. A characteristic feature of the balaclava is a slit for the eyes. Since the thing is made of elastic knitwear, if necessary, the face can be completely opened by slightly stretching the slit and lowering it under the chin. Such a hat is indispensable if a person spends a lot of time outdoors in extreme weather conditions, such as severe frost with wind or heat with the scorching sun and sand or dust flying in the face.

It is generally accepted that a balaclava is an attribute of special forces, designed to hide their faces, but in ordinary civilian life this hat is absolutely indispensable for hiking in the forest, hunting or fishing. It will protect against midges, and from ticks, and from adverse weather conditions.

Urban dandies would be right to include a knitted hat with an eye hole in their stylish sets, because even in the form of a cat, borrowed from a Hollywood movie, it looks very organic on young ladies. Charming cat ears look incredibly cute on women's heads.

Ushanka and its variations

The hat with earflaps has undergone so many changes that it can be called a record holder in this competition. Based on it, such models as malachai, three-piece, bomber and trapper appeared. Initially, they were all different types of fur hats.

For the soldiers of either the Russian Imperial Army or the Red Army (here the historical versions diverge), a group of artists, headed by such masters as V. M. Vasnetsov and B. M. Kustodiev, developed a new uniform. The famous Budyonovka hat, or, as it was also called, the Frunzevka and the hero, with a pointed upper part very much resembled the helmets of heroes, and with a turning away part - three. A budenovka was sewn from cloth.

Currently, earflaps have moved into the category of headdresses, which are made from drape, leather, knitted with threads and fur stripes. But malachai is invariably included in the types of hats sewn from fur. A distinctive feature of this headdress is a lush tail sewn to the back of the head.

Ushanka bomber is an accessory for polar pilots. But he firmly settled in the wardrobes of purely earthly fashionistas. This hat is made of leather and fur. The outer parts are leather, while the inner part is made of textile and fur or the same leather as the upper.

Ushanka-trapper is named from the English term meaning "fur-bearing animal hunter". If we list the generally accepted types of fur hats, then the trapper will be among the first. The top of this headdress, which is very fashionable in our time, is made of waterproof textiles, and the inner, turning away parts are made of fur.

The economy version of earflaps is a snag. This is an imitation of a classic hat. Outwardly, it looks like an earflap, in which the ear lobes are raised to the top of the head and connected. Very effective snag from mink, ferret.

The most fashionable and modern earflaps are made with very long ears, which can be wrapped around the neck like a scarf. Sometimes they end with a semblance of pockets in which it is convenient to warm hands. Such hats are either sewn from natural or artificial fur, or knitted from various types of yarn.

Cap and its varieties

Gogol, Moscow, Ambassador - all these are the names of the hat a la Russe, which repeats the shape of the cap. Ambassador - an aristocratic headdress, once highly revered by representatives of the communist elite of the Soviet Union. They were sewn to them from the best astrakhan fur, fawn or mink. Nowadays, this hat has been resurrected for snobs and hipsters. She is very elegant and requires impeccable additions in the form of a coat, muffler, shoes, gloves and a briefcase. Picking up an ambassador in size is quite difficult. This hat should not sit too loose, spontaneously rotating around the circumference of the head with careless movement. At the same time, it is very unpleasant to feel how she squeezes her forehead, trying to slide to the top of her head. It is best to order such a hat in the workshop of an experienced tailor. With a small amount of fur, it is quite possible to make a blende, that is, to imitate a band with the help of a fold distributed along the perimeter of the crown.

An elegant longitudinal crease at the top of the crown is one of the distinguishing features of this headdress. This fold looks very impressive. This gives status to the appearance of the wearer of this headdress.

Gogol is the same ambassador, only without the band. Both headdresses are very slim and visually increase height, which is undoubtedly complementary for any man.

Cossack and boyar hats

In recent years, the so-called Cossack hats have become very popular in the West. types of hats are directly related to the uniforms of the Cossack troops. They are sewn from the skin of sheep. Such hats made of long-haired white or black fur are very good. Also, these hats look great even if they are made of silver or brown astrakhan, astrakhan, smushka, lambskin and yarka.

The pattern of the Cossack hat is not difficult - it is a rectangle, the long side of which is equal to the length of the circumference of the head. Short - the height of the cap itself. The bottom, or top, crown part is a circle. It can be from the same material as the main part, or it can be textile.

It is worth paying attention to the following types of hats and their names. This is the most complex and interesting model - murmolka.

Murmolka has nothing to do with the Cossacks, but talking about the types of winter hats, it would be unfair to ignore this men's headdress. Murmolka - men's hat. Its crown repeats the kubanka, but the murmolka has a lapel - a blade, which, unlike the famous boyarka, which will be discussed below, has a slit above the forehead.

Boyarka is worn by both women and men. In the photographs presented in our article, you can see various types of winter hats, including the boyar. A characteristic feature of this headdress is a two-stage structure formed by a crown and a lapel edge. The most expensive models are sewn from sable, arctic fox and mink.

A talk hat is the same boyarka, but textiles are taken for its implementation - drape, velor, velveteen, velvet, natural or artificial leather, etc. Many types of knitted hats are made with knitting needles or crocheted exactly according to the pattern of the classic current or small Jewish hats .

in modern reading

Very simple in execution, comfortable and practical hats, tightly fitting the head, originate in Jewish fashion. Such types of knitted hats as beanie or cockerel are yarmulke and kippah increased in height. I must say that knitted hats have excellent plasticity. They can be worn by twisting the bottom edge with a thick short roll or wrapped with a wide bar, or they can be pulled up and shaped in the shape of a cock's comb.

At present, fashion suggests wearing such hats, slightly pulling up and back so that the main volume descends to the back collar. Fashionistas will be interested in how best to drape these types of hats in the coming year. The photos posted in our article clearly demonstrate the most successful options.

Cap

The main distinguishing feature of the named headdress is a visor. This detail was borrowed from a cap by many models that were traditionally sewn without a visor. This detail is now successfully sewn to a balaclava, to a beanie, to a Kubanka, to an earflap, to a scarf, to a beret, to an officer's cap, to a shako, etc. It should be noted that the family of caps has grown very much over the past decades. There are baseball caps, and caps, and caps. They differ from each other in the cover of the crown and the length of the visor. The crown can consist of one or two parts, or maybe eight wedges. Often the cap resembles a beret or cap. She may have a band, or she can safely do without it. Textiles, leather and short-haired fur are used as materials for the manufacture of caps.

Turban

Fashion for all kinds of turbans and turbans came to Europe from the Middle East. Now they are even made of fur, imitating the assembly over the forehead. I must say that hats of this style are very few. A hat wrapped around the head suggests an appropriate wardrobe, that is, a dress or coat in a special, finely tuned style. You need to have a very delicate taste in order to make a harmonious set and not look ridiculous. Makeup in a moderate European style can soften the oriental character of the accessory. The European turban should not have a large volume. It is better if it is monophonic, in the color of the main costume. Jewelry in the form of brooches, buttons with rhinestones, feathers and other things should be excluded.

How to choose the right headdress?

The headdress should be selected not only for the occasion, but also for the type of appearance. When buying a hat, it must be tried on in front of a mirror. If the face has not become prettier, then it is better to immediately refuse such a hat, no matter how fashionable and beautiful it may be. You should pay attention to whether the face has become excessively round or elongated. If a knitted hat pricks, it means that it is made of coarse yarn, and therefore it will be uncomfortable to wear it. The headgear should not be tight or loose on the head. In the first case, it can provoke a headache, and in the second it will interfere with seeing, since when turning or tilting the head, it will block the view. There are hats of universal styles that suit almost everyone, and there are those that suit only a few. A typical example is a very fashionable one. No matter how funny and cute she may look on a model, before buying her, you should ask yourself: “What kind of facial expression do I have most often?” If it is very serious, strict or concentrated, then it would be more correct to refuse such an accessory. Most knitted hats and some models of fur or felt, in particular, with various ears, as well as with pompoms, funny prints, etc., can only be recommended to rather infantile personalities. In extreme cases, putting on such a headdress, you should tune in to a humorous, even frivolous way. A serious face in a hat with a pom-pom looks intimidating and at the same time comical. In any case, such a character cannot be taken seriously.

Fantasy is most appropriate to show in the manufacture of hats for babies. Our photos show only some types of children's hats. The kids look very hilarious in headdresses decorated with muzzles of animals or voluminous flowers. By and large, they fit almost all types of hats. Crocheting or knitting such an accessory will not be difficult.
