It is advisable to select a headdress together with the clothes with which you will wear it. The best adviser in choosing a hat will be a mirror, listen to no one, look carefully at the mirror and determine whether this headdress decorates you or whether you look ridiculous in it. And to make it easier for you to choose a hat, you should remember a few rules when choosing a headdress for appearance. So, our rules are devoted to how to choose the right hat.

Everything is simple here: the taller you are, the larger the hat.

Small, bulky hats are suitable for girls with small stature. Such women should exclude large and tall hats from their wardrobe.

Tall women should choose wide or flat hats. But under no circumstances should they opt for tight-fitting, small or narrow hats.


The headdress should complement the appearance and not contradict it. Triangular face Small headdresses are suitable - hats with small brims, hats with “ears” that cover the forehead, scarves or scarves. You can try on bulky berets and fedoras, which are worn pushed to the side. But tight-fitting hats should be avoided.

Panama hats, voluminous berets, hats with brims or trim, and hats with visors are suitable for a round face. Asymmetry looks good: offset decor or fields curved on one side. You can try on a large knit hat with a lapel. Those with long hair can try wearing scarves or headbands. But you should avoid bulky hats, bowlers, pillbox hats, tight-fitting headdresses, knitted hats and brimless hats.

A square face will suit ear flaps, hats with lowered brims, asymmetrical hats without heavy decoration, as well as sports-style models. Scarves and hats with brims are contraindicated for girls with a square face shape.


An oval face will suit wide “bohemian” berets, stylish caps with a flat top, classic men's hats, asymmetrical hats, small hats with a deep crown and sloping brim. Hats with curved brims and earflaps with ears tied back also look good. Knitted hats, tight berets, large wide brim hats and hats pulled up are not suitable for such people.

The hat should be in harmony with your hairstyle.

Girls with straight and short hair You should wear a sports-type headdress, hats with ear flaps and bowlers.

Women with short and curly hair should choose caps or panama hats.

And for girls with curly and long hair, it is better to choose berets, hats with lowered brims and tight-fitting knitted hats.


The color of the headdress should be combined with the color of the skin and hair color. For redheads, hat colors such as chocolate, plum, spruce, green, gray, black and blue are suitable. You should not choose a red headdress.

Dark brown and ashy - light gray, pearl and pistachio shades.

Blondes should wear light-colored hats. Beige and peach colors are best. A pastel shades should be replaced with brighter and rich colors eg blue, black, brown or red.

The headdress should be in harmony with the clothing in color and style.

You should choose a matching hat and bag or hat and shoes. The hat can also match the color of the dress or coat.

Hats go well with long raincoats or coats, but do not look at all together with short jackets. Knitted hats suit a sporty style. A brightly colored knitted hat looks good with a down jacket, and with a quilted one autumn jacket- a perky cap with a hard visor. For a fur coat you should choose a knitted or fur one, for a sheepskin coat - hats of mixed textures, for example, fur and leather, fur and knitting.

You should remember what simpler cut clothes, the more complex the headdress should be, and vice versa. When purchasing a scarf, remember that it and the headdress must have the same texture.

A little historical background

A beret is traditionally called a flat, soft headdress without a visor, which, according to some sources, appeared in Celtic times. At least in book miniatures late Middle Ages You can definitely see its first prototypes. It was at that time that they began to introduce military uniform, where the man's beret played far from last role. However, at first only some units wore it. This headdress officially received the status of a piece of military clothing after the First World War, in 1924.

Berets were especially popular in Great Britain, France and Spain. Here they were worn not only by military personnel, but also by ordinary people. During the First World War, tank crews were the first to think about introducing berets into use. It was inconvenient to wear caps; a simpler headdress was needed, without a visor. The black beret was just perfect. At first it was worn only by the Royal Tank Corps, then the trend spread to all armored units. Berets became of different colors (depending on the purpose of the troops) - crimson, blue, light blue, green.



Today, the beret is one of the most interesting headdresses that can be played with endlessly. It is associated with creativity and freedom (primarily with artists and poets), and high-caliber Hollywood stars appear on the streets here every now and then. And it’s hard to call this headdress seasonal. The beret can be worn in frosty winter, rainy autumn, warm spring, and even sultry summer. It all depends on what material it is made of.
