An accessory that completes the winter outfit.
Ribbed, fluffy or bow hat
The hat is first chosen based on its knit. The ribbed knit, like on the Selfhood Rib Block, fits the head and can be worn high or low depending on the cuff. Fluffy knits, like the Selfhood Fluffy, offer a very soft touch and a cocooning style, while the Moss Copenhagen Mojo is more understated. Barts, a Dutch brand with designs from Amsterdam, offers various styles: bow on the Teddybow, pompom, braids. For a woman with her hair tied up, a loose hat gives space for a bun, while a fitted cut stays in place better in strong winds.

Faux fur bucket hat or rain bucket hat
The bucket hat is now worn all year round. In winter, the Kangol Faux Fur, made of faux fur, keeps the head warm with a soft look; the English brand, founded in 1938, has made the bucket hat one of its classics. On rainy days, the rain bucket hat Guess, made from water-repellent material, protects the head and neck without flattening the hair like a hood, featuring a jacquard pattern on some models like the Noelle. The Barts Bretia bucket hat offers a more classic version, for both autumn and spring. It is chosen based on the head size, measured above the ears, since a bucket hat isn't adjustable.
Belts, headbands and caps
A belt shapes a silhouette: in classic leather from JD Attack or Le Temps des Cerises, in chain from Guess, more trendy from Pieces or Ichi. It is measured at the spot where it will be worn, at the waist or hips, which can vary by several centimetres. The headband covers the ears while leaving the hair free, ideal with a ponytail: the Barts Witzia in knit for the city, the Covalliero for equestrians. The cap K-Swiss, open on top, accompanies sunny days and racket sports.

Frequently asked questions
How to wash a fluffy hat?
Wash it by hand in cold water with a gentle detergent, without rubbing, then gently squeeze it in a towel. Let it dry flat and brush it gently once dry to revive the fluffiness of the knit.
What accessory to gift a woman who is always cold?
A fleece-lined hat and a headband for the milder days make an effective duo. The faux fur bucket hat also covers the tops of the ears, with a trendier look than a classic hat.
How to care for a leather belt?
Wipe it with a soft cloth, nourish the leather once or twice a year with a clear cream, and store it flat or rolled, never folded. Avoid leaving it wet, which causes the leather to swell and then crack.
What is the purpose of a cap?
Open on top, it protects the eyes from the sun while letting the head breathe and the hair stay up. It's a popular accessory in tennis, golf or running, very lightweight and adjustable at the back.
What size hat for a woman?
Most women's hats are one size fits all and stretch to fit a head circumference of about 54 to 58 centimetres. Ribbed knits are the most stretchy, fluffy knits a bit less so.
