Nostalgic Futurists. For next winter, the hat category joins a sentiment of creative reset with products that embrace subculture and diversity as much as possible. Exploring a subversive punk aesthetic, the beret will come in subtle glam-rock variations, with embellishments of chains and studs. On the same nocturnal note, a rodeo elegance with glitzy add-ons is enhancing current Americana hats with stand-out fedoras. Diving into heritage, a sense of mountain retreat maintains the balaclava still on the hot spot, but adds après-ski elements such as the active headband, which was already making its entrance during the FW22 shows. Looking at novelties, big fuzzy headwear is on the rise. From exaggerated bucket shapes, full of ironic creativity to arctic Chapka looks, the furry look is not holding back. Continuing this stride of fun for FW23 hats, animal or avatar-inspired pieces embrace a bigger spot for next winter season. Next to this youthful favorite, the revival of skate culture will influence the classical beanie with bulky yarns and chunky finishes and create new statement caps, inspired by a 2000s streetwear culture and current grunge trend.
