I have a reasonable arsenal of
hats in my wardrobe. Actually, I only rotate two of them: a black
Fred Perry newsboy cap and a slouchy khaki driver's cap from
H&M. With hats being such a hot commodity (and a nice
Christmas gift) with hipsters and fashionistas alike, there is a happy myriad of styles that are hard to differentiate. Sure, there is the run-of-the-mill cap, but what about all those other ones? What makes my newsboy cap different from a driver's cap? Does
Justin Timberlake have an affinity for
fedoras or
trilbies? Is a
bowler strictly worn by bowlers or is it
Charlie Chaplin's signature hat? Is a
porkpie a diner delicacy or a jazzy head topper? And what exactly is a
Panama hat? Instead of trying to go into the details of the different kind of hats that are spreading like wildfire throughout the fashion world, go to the slideshow for a pictorial glossary.
