Women's caps

Caps, like most other originally male things, slowly but surely migrated to the women's wardrobe. They replaced the hats that had become less relevant. The main detail of any cap is a visor having a different shape and length.

Consider the most common types and models of women's caps:

• Baseball caps. They were invented around the middle of the last century to protect American baseball players from the sweltering sun. Over time, baseball caps became popular with the fans of the teams, and then spread among the rest of the population. A baseball cap is characterized by a slightly elongated visor shape and a special cut of an oval base of six parts.

• Cap with a straight peak. Like a baseball cap with a square base. Representatives and fans of hip-hop and rap culture liked such stylish caps.

• Bicycle cap. An analogue of a baseball cap, but with a shorter visor. The teenage and youth version provides for a “bully” visor.

• Trucker cap. Also similar to a baseball cap, but with a longer and curved visor. Often a fine mesh is sewn on the back of the head.

• Visor. Cap in the form of a visor attached to the tape. Used when playing tennis or volleyball. This "undercap" is also convenient because the head does not sweat, even with intensive training.

• Denim caps. Weariness and high quality material are combined with versatility. Youth options for women's denim caps are decorated with appliqués, embroidery, lace, rhinestones, sequins, chains or interesting prints.

• Three-blade. The pattern is built on the basis of three wedges. The visor is slightly smaller than a regular cap.

• Five-blade.It looks like a three-blade cap, but its occipital part is sewn from three parts.

• Eight Blade (Gavrosh Cap). The upper part is assembled from eight wedges. Such caps are often called “hooligans” for their similarity with models common in the middle of the last century. With the competent selection of other wardrobe items, it can be not only a manly bully, but also quite feminine.

• Flat cap. It is covered with a visor that does not have a solid substrate, therefore its shape is narrowed and shortened.

• Jockey caps (jockeys). Rounded caps in the form of a bowler hat, with an indispensable visor. Tulia is most often planted on a rigid, solid foundation. Sometimes such products are complemented by a flirty fluffy pompom or animalistic ears.

• Cepi bell. Reminiscent of elegant hats with a small peak. Sewn from plain felt, often decorated with ribbons, bows, feathers and artificial flowers.

• Cap beret. The cut of such a product provides for a free landing, and the visor protects from rain or wind.

• The cap is German. The product is a strict straight cylindrical shape in the army style. It is characterized by a low straight top and a strong rectangular visor.

• Cap. It differs from other caps in an inflated rounded base. It is decorated with a welt along the tip and the upper edge of the body. The cap is not pulled over the head to the end.

• French cap. It has a flat rounded crown and a small visor. Historically appeared in the army of France. Its predecessor was a reed frame covered in lightweight fabric.

• Breton cap. Soft cap caps. It is considered a classic headdress for sailors. In Russia, it is better known under the name "cap".

• Cap-cap. A kind of army cap. It is characterized by the bottom of a round or oval silhouette and an expanded tulle. A decorative tape or cord hides the seam at the border of the visor with the band.

• Beanie. Visually, it is a simple hat with lapels and a slightly curved visor. It is sewn from dense materials. The base of the bean is made of six petals. It is popular among young people involved in winter sports, such as snowboarding.

• Fur caps. They are made of artificial or natural fur, they are also tinted in bright colors - red, pink, blue, yellow ... Often decorated with brooches, rhinestones, beads.

If historically caps were associated only with military and sports style, today it is customary to combine them with many other styles.

• When playing sports, an invaluable accessory will be a baseball cap, a bicycle, or the so-called trucker cap. In winter, popular slopes will be appropriate on the slopes, and in summer, practical visors will support the sporty style on the courts.

• Military style is unthinkable without a suitable headgear. The most common caps representing army style are caps, caps, Breton, French caps, as well as a German cap.

• A youth image is unthinkable without an actual cap - young virgins wear baseball caps with inscriptions, denim caps with stripes, caps with ears and caps from a bright "cheburashka".

• Caps in a glamorous style are decorated with prints, stickers, rhinestones, stones and crystals. There are a variety of colors and styles.

• The romantic look will be supported by cap bells, jockey caps, denim caps with lace and multi-colored fur hats with a visor.

• To create an image in a marine or sailor style, it is enough to wear a cap made of natural material, stylized as a sailor cap.

• A rapper style is a cap with a straight peak, often worn backwards, decorated with logos, rhinestones, stones and shining inscriptions.

• Rocker style leather caps with rivets, spikes, skulls or goggles will help to realize your style.

• In the business style of a modern business woman, felt bell caps, classic five-blade caps, beret caps and caps made of expensive fur will perfectly fit.

Age women often adorn themselves with all sorts of caps. The main thing here is to avoid frankly youthful, extravagant or catchy models. Military-style caps for women in their fifties are not quite right. Sports caps are best worn only for sports, relaxing in the country or walking through the woods.

A strict cut of five- or eight-blades, a classic cap-beret or a slightly extravagant cap-bell will decorate any lady of age. The visor length of the selected products is preferably medium or minimum. A fur cap is recommended from a short neutral fur.

Light negligence is the main trend of the current season. With regard to caps, it is also applicable to a certain extent. It is known that not everyone likes to wear hats, even in the cold or, conversely, in the bright summer sun.

But seldom what modern girl will pass by a “patsanka” cap or a hooligan baseball cap. Frankly male models look great, decorated with typically female decorative elements: bright embroidery, iridescent logos, rich prints and rhinestones.

Sports and summer caps are mainly sewn of light natural materials - cotton or linen. Baseball caps made of polyester are often found on sale - it is better to avoid such products, they breathe badly, and in the heat it will be uncomfortable, even overheating is possible.

Caps made of lightweight cotton jersey sit perfectly on the head and protect their owners from scorching sunlight. Denim caps do not go out of fashion for many years, they are comfortable, durable and attract a variety of models.

In the cool season, warmed caps made of woolen materials (for example, drape, tweed or boucle), as well as fur (mink, seal, rabbit-rex, as well as astrakhan and mutton) are especially sought after.

Autumn “eight-blades” and flat caps are sewn of cashmere, jacquard, gabardine, velor or velvet. An alternative is leather (natural or artificial) or suede. It is customary to insulate leather caps with fur if they are intended for winter wear. Felt caps, mainly jockeys and bells, not only keep their shape well, but also perfectly warm the heads of their owners.

Knitted caps are quite common among girls and women of any age. Moreover, such caps can be bought ready-made or knitted, independently or to order according to the picture you like.

Caps are knitted from various materials: natural (wool, cashmere, angora, mohair) and synthetic (acrylic, polyamide, viscose). The result is unique and unique models that can enrich the image with a truly bright accent.

At the peak of popularity this season, caps of all shades, ranging from classic tones (black, white, gray, beige, brown), and ending with extravagant, bright and saturated colors (juicy red, emerald green, bright blue, yellow and white metallic) . Often there are combined models that include two to four colors.

A check cap is a classic of fashion. Moreover, it happens both monochrome and multicolor. The size of the cell also varies - from small, formed by weaving woolen threads to large "tartan". Of the traditional prints, I would also like to mention the ageless goose foot. A note of audacity and charm will be added to the image of a cap with animal and vegetable prints.

Caps with a pattern for crocodile or snake skin can be especially distinguished.

A cap is not only a fashion accessory, but also a headdress designed to protect its owner from adverse weather: sunlight, rain, wind, frost or snow. Therefore, it should be selected:

• firstly, depending on the purpose;
• secondly, in size;
• thirdly, taking into account the shape of the head and face;
• fourthly, not forgetting the correspondence of the novelty to your main style orientation of the wardrobe.

As for the destination, everything is simple - for the summer we choose lightweight breathing caps, for the off-season - insulated, and the warmest ones with fur and closed ears are suitable for wearing in the winter.

The length of the visor is selected depending on the shape of the face. If options with a short visor are suitable for everyone, then a long straight visor can be recommended for girls and women with an oval face and medium-sized facial features. In addition, a straight visor visually expands the face, so it will not work for those with advanced cheekbones. In order to visually narrow the cheekbones, a curved narrow visor should be preferred.

Fashionable youth caps with inscriptions and prints are best worn with clothes in sports style.

Girls can create an ensemble of baseball caps and dresses, but for this, at least one sports piece is required in the image - the corresponding jacket or sneakers. Military cap models will look great in combination with camouflage clothing, as well as with casual casual items: jeans, t-shirts and jackets.

Denim caps are not suitable for sportswear, but they also fit perfectly into the outfit in a casual style. It should be remembered that denim caps are not recommended to be combined with other things from the same material - jeans or a jacket.

A winter cap can be worn with a voluminous coat, a short fur coat or a stylish down jacket. Do not choose for combination with a cap overly feminine fitted coats or fur coats. Fur caps should not be worn with fur coats.

Jockeys go well with stylish parkas or sporty-chic raincoats. It is advisable to choose shoes with a low heel or platform.
