How to choose a hat for a hot summer
The choice of hats for wearing in the summer should be taken most responsibly, since, in addition to decorative, such a headdress should also perform a protective function. The most important condition when choosing is natural materials and no synthetics. The latter does not protect against overheating, does not absorb moisture, and increases body temperature. The ideal option is sewing hats made of cotton, coarse calico, chintz, linen fabrics. The main thing is that the hats are in harmony with the style of clothing. And the models and types of hats can be different and depend on personal preferences: with wide or narrow brim, cloche or bell, cowboy hat or boater, etc.
As for the colors, it is difficult to advise anything here, since each case should be considered separately. For bright sundresses and long multi-colored skirts, wide-brimmed types of pastel, light-colored hats are suitable. On the contrary, it is better to complement light clothes with bright accessories, including a headdress of interesting colors and with an unusual ornament.
Rules for wearing summer hats
The same types of hats can be worn in several ways. Each time they will take on a new look and look different. For example, a summer headdress may coverforehead or full face, when the edges of the wide margins reach almost to the chin. Some types of hats look great when pushed to one side; they may be wide-brimmed or with small margins. Straw hats can be fixed with wide satin ribbons, which allows you to wear them not only on your head, but also by sliding them to the back of your head or placing them behind your back.
Don't be afraid to experiment and combine the incongruous, then you will have a bright, extraordinary and memorable look - just what you need for the summer.
