Good news: again a season with many hats and caps
Good news for me and all hat lovers: this will be another season in which we will see many hats. At least if it was up to the designers, as there were many hats on the catwalks. Hats, but also caps in various models and sizes. One design jumped out: it is a simple one. It was shown at the shows of Valentino, Jil Sander, Nina Ricci, and Dior. The term “inverted bucket” does absolutely no justice to this model. This lady that I once photographed in Paris, wears it – in combination with those tough boots – perfectly right as far as I’m concerned.
Petten & Mutsen
One’s choice depends on the occasion and of course on the weather. Maybe you prefer a cap instead of a hat. Fortunately, caps are also readily available. From the simple alpino to more luxurious variants with slightly more bells and whistles. Of course, you can also add it yourself. This Italian beauty (below) wears a model that stands midway between hat and cap.
For men & women
A nice cap is not only for women.
For people with guts
For some hats you have to have the guts to wear them. When I saw this hat in a (clothing) store a few years ago, I fell in love. I still think it’s a great hat, but I must confess that I have never worn it outside. And yet I don’t want to miss it. Probably there will be a good opportunity. Until then, it adorns the inside of my cupboard. You can of course pass a hat everywhere: in a department store, at the market. But in case you are looking for something special and want good advice: check out specialty stores such as Mirjam Nuver or Demure. It is worth it, because a good hat will give you years of pleasure.Voor sommige hoeden moet je lef hebben om ze te dragen. Toen ik deze hoed een paar jaar geleden in een (kleding)winkel zag, was ik verkocht. Ik vind ‘m nog steeds geweldig, maar ik moet bekennen dat ik ‘m nog nooit buiten de deur gedragen heb. En toch wil ik ‘m nog niet missen. Er komt vast eens een goeie gelegenheid voor. Tot die tijd siert deze de binnenkant van m’n kast. Je kunt natuurlijk overal slagen voor een hoed: in een warenhuis, op de markt. Maar voor het geval je iets bijzonders zoekt en een goed advies wilt: kijk dan eens speciaalzaken zoals bij Mirjam Nuver of Demure. Het is de moeite waard, want van een goede hoed heb je jaren plezier.
Inspiratie

I have thick hair so I don’t need a hat (also live on the Côte d’Azur) which is lucky as I detest anything on my head. I always admire them on others though.
You’re a lucky woman in many ways! Nice to hear that although you don’t wear anything on your hat yourself, you can enjoy seeing others.
That is a fabulous hat – you must wear it! Don’t wait for an occasion, make one!!!
Thank you, you’re right, I’ll make one!
