Look Like A Movie Star In A Trilby Hat

Clothing styles are one of the great features of old movies. Who could imagine the tough guys and glamour girls of the ’30s, ’40s and ’50s without their snappy hats? Well, guess what – hats are back, and in a big way.

Hollywood’s romantic leads such as Brad Pitt, Matt Damon and Ben Affleck, along with female stars like Britney Spears and Madonna, have all been seen in recent years wearing, of all unexpected things, a stylish Trilby hat. Traditionally a Trilby hat is described as a men’s hat made of soft felt with a pinch in the front and a deeply indented crown. Today, Trilbys can be found in all sizes and types of material, in various designs that look fabulous with many fashionable outfits.

One thing about the return of hats is that most folks are in need of hat education. That’s why it’s important to get to know a good hat shop, whether locally or online such as HatsBoutique.

At HatsBoutique, a hat shop customer shopper can find his or her perfect headgear, such as the Casino Trilby Hat, a fine pinstripe design, matched with high quality material. There’s also the Pinstripe Legend Trilby hat as well as Capone and Piccadilly styles, ranging in sizes from small (56cm) to extra large (61 cm). For an English Country look (or maybe a nod to Rex Harrison in “My Fair Lady”), there’s the Fenland Herringbone Checked Trilby hat in majestic grey, a classic heavyweight design of sturdy construction that will stand the test of time.

Another well-recommended version is the Black Side-walk Trilby hat, which has what the web site calls an “amazing leather effect.” One customer was so thrilled with his hat that he wrote about it on the HatsBoutique website:

“I was looking for a good-looking Trilby for a recent trip to New York. This hat worked out perfectly. It’s classic and neutral enough to go with almost all of my outfits. Great with jeans or something more formal. Really good material as well. … Sweet.” What better recommendation could a piece of clothing want than the compliments of a truly satisfied customer?

In addition, the online hat shop at HatsBoutique carries more than Trilbys. There’s a wide selection of ladies’ straw hats for summer, as well as sun hats, country hats such as cadet caps, cowboy hats, berets, beanies and Aussie hats for women and men. And if a shopper wants to look forward to winter, there are even trapper hats with furry earflaps that make anyone look ready to tackle the frozen tundra.

If being among hat-wearing fashionistas doesn’t make a person want to get with his or her nearest hat shop, there’s even a health benefit to wearing hats. These days, hats are widely recommended by doctors as a way to screen out the harmful ultraviolet (UV) rays that can lead to skin cancer. So customers can have their fashion and stay healthy at the same time! Sweet!
