Wide brim hats: Wide brim hats along with dubbed Amish hats are very trendy both for men and women this year. They come to spice up your boho chic or retro style outfits, boosting your look sky high. This type of hats can perfectly go with flared pants, loose blouses with bow-tie necks, and 70′s-inspired double-breasted jackets. There are also vintage inspired wide brims that can perfectly accomplish your pencil skirts, fur and high boots. Men are advised to wear wide brim hats with tailored suits and ‘30s style gangster coats, but also with velvet jackets and casual outfits, creating a fantastic contrast with them.
