29 Of The Best Sun Hats To Wear Right Now
What hats to wear whilst cracking open your second (sixth) M&S cocktail, from floppy straw hats to bucket hats
Apparently it’s now summer (who knew?) so it’s time to look to Jacquemus' almighty straw sun hats to get us in the mood for what to wear this season. But, if gigantic sun hats aren’t quite up your street, then it's pretty much anything goes for this year.
For full 1990s vibes go with fashion’s current favourite: the classic bucket hat in anything from raw edge denim to ditzy daisy prints. Or, if you ant zingy brights in tech fabrics, look to Paco Rabanne or the Loewe x Paula's Ibiza collection, which has you set for a long hot summer with parrot prints and tropical floral vibes. This spring summer season sees plenty of sun hats for you to pick from so it's time to get browsing now.
Style floppy, relaxed, raffia soft brim summer hats with swishy long summer dresses, cool linens and ankle tie sandals for an easy breezy boho chic look. For bold bright bucket hats, go for baggy jeans worn low on the hips, tops as cropped as your dare and some platform flip-flops TLC would be proud of.
If you’re still feeling attached to your trusted tracksuit then adding a pop of colour with a wide brim bucket hat will give your leisure wear look an instant fashion update and hide any at home hair-cut disasters that may have happened over the last year… we’re not here to judge.
