Possibly, the hat is the most versatile complement of our outfit. For centuries, in most societies, the instinct to protect and dress the head has been an absolute trend. 

Today, the peaked cap is the most modern and popular version. We love it in all colors and it adapts perfectly to our rhythm. 

But the most classic designs also triumph, which always give us that elegant touch that we admire so much. However, in summer we are more concerned about UV protection than at other times of the year. We add to the sunny days the days at the beach and it is clear that we need a hat to protect us. 

That's why we are going to see which are the classic summer hat models, made of fresh and breathable fabrics. Summer hats are part of the seasonal trends that come back every year bringing new shapes and colors. If you want to know which hat to choose for this summer, read on.

4 types of classic summer hats

Panama Hat

Classic by excellence, its name comes from the fact that it was popularized during the construction of the Panama Canal although its origin is from Ecuador. Its secret of success? Silky touch and natural and very porous fabric, ideal for the hottest days of the year. 

In neutral colors, Panama hats complement perfectly with comfortable and bright styles. Whether short-brimmed or wide-brimmed, they protect the eyes and the neck and neck area, so exposed to possible sunstroke. 

Beret

Although the beret is a masculine hat, more and more women are daring to wear them on any occasion. They have that "rebellious touch" so seductive that we love. The secret is in the fabrics. It is a model that adapts perfectly to any type of event. From an elegant lunch to a long walk in the countryside. 

Bucket

Another essential classic is the bucket hat. Comfortable, with simple lines, it has become part of our daily lives. Designed to protect from the humidity of the sea and rivers, its design allows for such a wide variety of fabrics and prints that it has become a must-have in the streets of the most famous cities in the world. Find out about the latest trends of this hat, in our blog about Bucket Hats.

Pamelas

This hat is the feminine of the classic hats. Its wide brim allows all kinds of ornamentation. Bows, tied scarves or even rhinestones, coquetry is always a plus! 

You can combine this type of hat with fresh and printed dresses in bright colors. Not suitable for the shy and its size attracts a lot of attention. It is elegant and offers good sun protection.
