Hats Galore at Paris Fashion Week

As the final catwalk has been walked and Paris Fashion Week comes to a close, there were accessories that made jaws drop. Hats aren’t only for a bad hair day, they can be used to spruce up any ‘fit no matter the occasion!

Everyone knows the classic French look is a beret, a string of pearls, and a bold red lip. This past week designers brought out a variety of hats differing from the classic.

Here are a few of the most alluring looks:

Chanel has managed to execute another amazing and fresh line that is still timeless. These straw hats are exactly what you need when you find yourself spring-breaking in Cabo or on the Amalfi Coast. Depending on the rest of your look, Chanel has made two chic options.

This Louis Vuitton white leather hat has all the retro vibes you need! The hat is very spunky, but for the right occasion it can be dressed up. Adding some plaid pants or snazzy flared jeans would be the perfect addition!

Nothing says golf tournament or derby race more than an oversized hat. Valentino has such strong statement accessories that could not be more suitable for gingham days at the country club (or Elon sporting events).

Suede and a deep red are the dynamic duo of Gucci’s line in Paris Fashion Week. There are endless options for styling this wide-brimmed Panama hat.
