TOP OFF YOUR OUTFIT WITH A GOOD HAT

-

Broad-brimmed hats aren’t just a primary school student’s safeguard for sunny lunchtime play.

They’re a classic style of headwear that transition­s seasons, provide ultimate sunsafe protection and create a halo to shape your face as well as adding style to your outfit.

Broad-brimmed hats not only protect you from sun damage, they’re an easy way to add elegance to an outfit.

With sun safety becoming an ever-growing considerat­ion in our modern world, wearing a hat is a stylish extension of this and a fantastic way to make a fashion statement too.

The best hats are handcrafte­d using traditiona­l techniques and authentic materials.

One such authentic material, straw, comes with an added bonus of having the capacity to maintain its shape through cramped storage and all-day wear.

Packable straw hats can be folded flat into your luggage and restored to their original shape when you arrive at your holiday destinatio­n, ensuring that fashion and health go hand in hand.

The perfect time to introduce your first wide-brim hat to your wardrobe is during the warmer months.

It’s the ultimate accessory to top off your look and keep your freckles at bay.

Start your hat hunt by focusing on neutral colours and tones you can match to garments in your wardrobe.

Dresses made from natural materials pair well with natural fibre hats, and you can complete the ensemble with a pair of sandals.

Go with a piece that will seamlessly transition into your wardrobe with colour and texture.

Straw hats are an easy go–to and perfect when matched with a light-weight cotton or silk–wrap dress and your favourite slides.
