The Wide Brim Hat’s History

<strong>The wide brim hat was born in the 19ᵉ century. You can recognize it by its large supple wide brim.</strong> Catherine Deneuve and Françoise Dorléac’s wide brim hats in Les Demoiselles de Rochefort give these hats their aura and glamour. <strong>Grace Kelly</strong> also wore many wide brim straw hats in pastel shades. They were embellished with muslin scarves tied around the cap.

Maison Fabienne Delvigne designed the Hepburn in an effort to bring all of the classic hat styles into one. It has the bottom of a boater while having the large brim of the wide brim hat. However, instead of being supple, it is stiffened with brass primers and wire. This hat was inspired by Audrey Hepburn. The Belgian actress was a great inspiration to the designer Fabienne Delvigne. She admired her elegance and sobriety.

<strong>Nowadays, the wide brim hat is considered a chic fashion item. It can be worn in summer as well as in winter, and for various occasions.</strong> Discover our collection of wide brim hats by clicking here
