The purpose of the hat is to visually elongate a round face

What you need to know when choosing hats for a round face

A round face needs to be visually lengthened. Knitted voluminous models of hats with pompoms do this well. However, you should not stop at them if you are short, otherwise you risk looking like a mushroom.

Pay attention to hats with a visor and berets worn on one side. Fur hats with ear flaps go well with a round face. When wearing such models, the ears are tied at the back of the head.

Girls with round cheeks should avoid tight models that fit tightly to the head. It is better to choose a voluminous option, with the hair straightened on both sides of the face. This technique visually elongates the face.

For girls with a round face, it is better to wear berets and hats, asymmetrically shifted to one side. If the beret is very voluminous, then it is moved to the back of the head.

All hat lovers should pay attention to models with a high crown and medium brim. Choose hats that are more similar to the men's version.

What to wear with hats for a round face

The hat should not only match your facial features, but also suit your style. It’s stupid to wear a hat with ear flaps with a classic business coat. It is better to give preference to hats, berets or choose a hat for a round face, as in the photo.

In addition, when choosing a hat for a fur coat or coat, you should consider the following:

  • a voluminous hat made of arctic fox, sable or fox fur will fit under a coat without a collar;
  • a mink hat and knitted beret models go well with a fur collar;
  • hats and berets are selected from the same fur as the fur coat. Do not wear a mink coat in combination with an arctic fox hat;
  • small hats visually reduce the volume of the head, therefore they are more suitable for women of short stature;
  • Large voluminous hats are best worn by tall ladies.

The combination of the hat with the shade of the hair is important. Peach, white or beige models are more suitable for blondes. And brunettes look good in hats of chocolate, purple and plum shades. Choose the color of the product slightly darker or lighter than the outerwear. Wear accessories in the same color scheme as the hat.

Remember one rule: if the outerwear is made in a simple style from fabric without a pattern, then the hat can be chosen with various arans, braids and ornaments. And vice versa: under a coat with a pattern, look for a simple and unpretentious beret model.

It's hard to imagine an autumn or winter wardrobe without such a necessary piece of clothing as a hat. Hats come in different styles, from different materials and all kinds of colors, their choice is huge, but it’s not always possible to choose a headdress so that you look good in it. To choose the right hat, you must first consider your face type. Today we will look at a round face type, and also tell you which hats are best suited for it. You will find examples with photos below.

Basic rules for choosing a headdress for chubby girls

First of all, you should remember that the hat should visually elongate a round face, reduce its volume, and not make it even rounder. In order to cope with this task, the size and height of the headdress are primarily important. Therefore, first we should list the hats that are not suitable for this type of face due to their size or shape:

  • Small, tight-fitting hats.
  • Tall fur hats.
  • Headphone hats, knitted and fur headbands
  • Berets and pill caps (flat)

The most suitable hat models for round faces

Suitable headwear for women with a round face are hats that visually narrow the face. Such hats should be high-waisted, open the forehead and in no case fit the head. Hats, caps with a small visor, and voluminous berets with a hanging bottom will look good.



Winter hats for women with chubby cheeks

Winter hats for chubby women can be knitted, and the knitting should be large or with a fairly voluminous pattern, but not too much, so as not to aggravate the situation and give the face even more volume. A knitted hat with a pompom on top will also look very good. Don't be scared by the pompom. The fact that a headdress with such a detail is suitable only for very young people is a stereotype that should be destroyed long ago.



Snood is still in trend

A stylish idea is the snood, which has been in trend for more than one season. A tube hat creates the necessary volume around the head, leaving the forehead completely open, thereby visually reducing and making the face narrower. Therefore, such hats are very suitable for women with round and wide faces.


Shawls and scarves: knitted, down or fabric

You can consider shawls and scarves, which have returned to fashion and are becoming very popular. They can be knitted, down or fabric. The color of this accessory must be matched to your complexion. Scarves and scarves are a universal accessory with which you can correct any type of face, using a different way of wrapping around the head for each.


You can also consider asymmetrical hats, but you must follow the open forehead rule.

Ushanka hats are also a good option for giving your face a more elongated shape. They can be fur, knitted, leather-fur. The main thing is that they have a high enough crown. See photo.


To create a stylish look with a hat, you need to combine other items of clothing. A hat with earflaps cannot be worn with a mink coat. A classic beret and a down jacket in a sporty style also don’t go well together. The exception, perhaps, is knitted hats, which are suitable for all styles of outerwear; the main thing is to choose a product from a fairly large knit and choose the color.

How to choose the color of a headdress based on your hair color

The color of the hat, in principle, does not matter, but it must be combined with the color of the outerwear and match the complexion. Otherwise, either the hat will look tacky, or the face will become expressionless and lost. There are several general rules for choosing the color scheme of a headdress depending on the hair color of its owner:

  • For blondes, pastel colors (beige, peach, soft pink, milky) would be ideal.
  • Brunettes are best suited to cool or bright colors (blue, purple, fuchsia)
  • It is better for fair-haired people to give preference to calm shades (gray, light green, blue)
  • Redheads will suit bright and rich colors (green, yellow, red), as well as all shades of brown.

The universal color for everyone is white. A headdress in this color will suit absolutely any woman.

By height and body type

When choosing a hat, height and body type play an important role. Small hats are not suitable for plump women of small stature, nor are voluminous fur hats suitable for fragile and thin women.

The hat should not only fit harmoniously into the image and visually eliminate the shortcomings of a round face, but also be combined with its features. Women with classic facial features will not suit extravagant asymmetrical hats. Girls with pronounced and sharply defined lines of the nose and cheekbones should avoid hats with clear geometric shapes.

Well, and, naturally, the choice of a hat should be determined by the temperature of the season for which this item of clothing is purchased, and the place of residence, since a hat is not so much a fashion accessory as a functional piece of clothing designed to keep your head warm.

During the cold season, going outside without a hat is very undesirable. In our article we will tell you how to choose a hat according to the face shape of a girl and a child and how to combine it with women’s outerwear.

Hat and face shape

All hairstyles and decorations are selected according to the shape of the face; accordingly, this also applies to the headdress. It is easiest for a woman with an oval face shape; it is considered ideally correct, and any headdress will suit her: beret, helmet, scarf, hat; You can even wear a tight-fitting knitted “bathtub”.

For those with a triangular face, it is very important to cover the wide part - the forehead, so we buy hats that are tight-fitting, preferably even, without convex patterns or pompoms. Avoid “pool caps,” which are overly tight-fitting styles.

For a girl with a round face, models with wide brims, large and voluminous berets, and asymmetrical headwear are suitable; the main thing is to avoid tight-fitting models. Also, headscarves are unlikely to be suitable for a round face.

Which hat should a girl with a square face choose? The simplest solution is to buy a good earflap hat. There are both sporty and elegant options - a helmet hat trimmed with natural fur, for example. Avoid very wide brims and hats with excessively low brims.

Choosing a hat by hair color

It would seem that it’s so difficult to buy a fashionable autumn or winter hat – and everything is fine. But everything is somewhat more complicated; here, as in clothing, the color scheme in which the attire is made is also important.

What colors are suitable:

  • brown-haired women look good in copper, chocolate, black, blue shades;
  • for natural light hair color and dyed blonde, gray, black, pink, blue are suitable;
  • brunettes will suit burgundy, blue, and red;
  • For red-haired girls, green, brown, golden, yellow are suitable.

In addition, a red top can be worn by ladies with copper or blue-black hair; a turquoise color will come in handy with dark brown or dark chocolate hair.

How to choose a winter hat and what to wear it with

It is very important to consider what outerwear you will wear with your headdress, because... it should suit the chosen style. In addition, if the clothes have fur trim, then you need to take into account the fact that the headdress, in this case, must also match the decor.

The most traditional look is a classic women's suit, hat and gloves. Here you can choose a fashionable black suit and a high-quality knitted hat. The suit will also go well with a properly selected earflaps, but only in an elegant style, a felt hat with a short brim and a tight-fitting cloche hat.

This season, a retro model - a women's bowler hat - has become very popular. Leading designers decorate it with fur or rhinestones, complement it with feathers and bead embroidery.

A correctly selected hat for a down jacket is not only a guarantee of warmth and comfort, but also a stylish appearance. Ideally, it should meet the following criteria:

  • match the color or at least the shade (if a contrasting model is chosen, then you need to choose a scarf to match it);
  • To go with a down jacket or winter jacket, you can also choose a sports model, perhaps with interesting patterns - kamea, Vorix and others.

How to choose a fur hat for the winter to go with a fur coat or coat with a natural fur collar? Simple models will look cheap and unnatural, and fur ones are very difficult to choose. How to choose the right mink hat, determine the quality of the fur:

  • fur should not tear easily and come away from the fabric - this is a sign of poor workmanship;
  • The length of the fur is very important, high-quality fur coats from mink, arctic fox, arctic fox, muton (sheepskin), silver fox, raccoon and beaver must have the same length - this is a sign of authenticity;
  • if you choose a men's mink hat, pay attention to the interior decoration, men's hair is coarser than women's, the shaped side should be made of more durable material - silk, knitwear, sheared fur.

You also need to be able to choose a hat to match your sheepskin coat. This fur coat will look good with almost all types of hats. For example, a sheepskin coat can be complemented well by buying a warm knitted hat with down trim.

In this case, a man can buy a “ski” model - a tight-fitting hat, as an accessory for swimming or a sauna.

Choosing a hat for a child

Choosing a hat for a child is always not an easy task. It should not only be soft and warm, but also beautiful and comfortable. Often children do not like to wear it because “they get prickly” or “the head itches.” To avoid such statements, buy clothes for your baby only from natural fabrics. You can also cheat and buy a hat decorated with the image of your favorite cartoon or game character - worms in wormix, Masha and the bears, etc.

The baby needs to choose a model with ears so that the wind does not blow through the baby. Quite stylish models from Kiko, Kerry or Travail. We advise you to try to combine models of hats and scarves - then the child will not only be warm, but also in style. Although the best solution is a windproof jumpsuit so that you can wear it without a hat at all.

Useful tips:

  • if you want to buy an expensive, say, seal or muskrat fur hat, but funds are limited, buy a rabbit one, it is no worse than other fur, but much cheaper;
  • To prevent your forehead from itching under a knitted hat, do not lift your bangs;
  • the spring model can also be chosen from fur, but decorated with it rather than made entirely of this material.

First of all, before choosing a hat, pay attention to its strength and ability to retain heat, and only then to its appearance and compliance with the trends of the season.

A hat is a necessary accessory for any wardrobe, but not everyone likes it. Many people complain that hats, berets, knitted caps and snoods don’t suit them at all. All these problems can be solved simply - you need to choose a headdress that suits your face type. And then it will not only warm you up in the cold, but will also effectively complement any stylish look.

Face types. What are they and how to determine yours?

  • Oval.
  • Round.
  • Rectangular.
  • Square.
  • Triangular.
  • Pear-shaped.
  • Diamond-shaped.

This parameter is the most important when choosing a hat. After all, if you violate proportionality, then there is a risk of looking ridiculous. This is where the myths arise that hats spoil your appearance. But how do you find out what type a person is? Our advice will help with this.

Determining the shape of the face

The easiest way to do this is with a measuring tape. Take some tape, pen and paper and take measurements. Then you can find out your face type down to the centimeter. To do this you need to take only 4 measurements:

  • Width of the face. Measured from cheekbone to cheekbone - at the most protruding points.
  • Forehead width. Place the measuring tape on the center line of your forehead. Take a measurement from the beginning of the forehead to the level of the arch of the eyebrows.
  • Jawline length. Measured from the chin to the angle of the lower jaw. The measurement taken must be multiplied by 2.
  • Face length is a measurement from the beginning of the forehead to the chin.

Now determining your face type is very simple. You just need to compare your measurements with the description and photo:

  • Oval. Its length exceeds its width by 1.5 times. Moreover, all the lines of the oval are rounded. There are no sharp angles, but the cheekbones are well defined.
  • Round. The length and width of the face are equal. The chin is round, the cheekbones are wide. The forehead is not high, the jaw is narrow.
  • Rectangular. This shape is often called elongated. This is due to the fact that its length significantly exceeds
  • width. The forehead and chin are almost the same in width. The chin is elongated. The cheekbones stand out, the forehead is high.

  • Square. A square is formed if the length between the cheekbones coincides with the length of the face (or differs by a couple of centimeters). The cheekbones and jaw line are clear and pronounced.
  • Triangular. The width of the forehead and cheekbones is large, and the chin is narrow. Therefore, this shape is often called “heart”.
  • Pear-shaped. The forehead is much narrower than the length of the jawline. The face is wide in the cheekbone area. Face length varies.
  • Diamond-shaped. The width of the cheekbones is greater than the proportions of the forehead and chin. The face can be of different lengths. Another name for this form is “diamond”.

How to choose a hat according to your face type? Some practical tips

Oval

This form is considered ideal. Almost all styles are suitable, but you need to beware of very tight berets. They will visually “shift” the proportions and make the lower part of the face heavier.

The best options for oval face shapes are:

  • Volumetric berets.
  • Classic style hats. Important: the crown should not be much wider than the cheekbones.
  • Hats with asymmetry.
  • Winter hat with earflaps.
  • The sock hat is loose and wide.

Circle

The task is to visually elongate the face. Therefore, it is better to choose voluminous hats or tall models with pompoms. Options with patterns directed vertically are ideal. The best styles for chubby girls:

  • Knitted voluminous hats.
  • Hats with a visor.
  • Tall hats with narrow brims.
  • Fur hats with ears that are best tied back.
  • Fedora hats and caps.

Advice. Under no circumstances should you cover your forehead. Hats should not be too tight on the head. “Landing” is asymmetrical.

Square

The hat should soften the angular features. Another purpose is to lengthen the outline. To achieve this, you need to abandon hats with large patterns. Preference should be given to soft, rounded lines. The best hat models for this type of appearance:

  • "Beanie."
  • Beret.
  • Ushanka hat for the winter. The “ears” of the hat can be tied back or fluffed down.
  • A cap with a small visor.
  • Models with “braids”, pompoms, freely going down.

Advice. It is better to move caps, berets and other hats slightly to the back of the head to open the forehead. An arched edge will give an oval shape, and an open forehead will elongate the silhouette a little.

In the photo: The Beanie hat is a great opportunity to soften angular features, as well as other successful models.




Triangle

In this case, you need to focus on the cheekbones. It's better to cover your forehead. The main requirement for a hat is that it should not fit your head tightly. Most suitable models:

  • Hats with small brims.
  • Small berets placed on the forehead or shifted to the side.
  • Knitted hats. It is better to lower them on the forehead.
  • Fur hats with ear flaps with downward “ears”.

Rectangle

The hat should soften rough lines and visually reduce the elongation of the face. Low hats with large, voluminous lapels will cope well with this task. It is better to wear them covering your forehead. The optimal models are caps and berets of medium volume, as well as hats with wide brims and a small crown. There is no need to buy long and too fluffy hats.

Pear

By expanding the forehead line with the help of a hat, you can improve the proportions and make them ideal. For this purpose, different types of hats are suitable, the brims of which are flat or raised up. Fedora, Homburg, Derby are a good choice. The main condition is that the crown is wider than the length of the jawline. Large patterns on hats and snoods also look good.

Rhombus

The “diamond” face looks great in caps of various styles. Hats with flat brims look elegant. The main condition is that they should create volume at the top of the head and be wider than the length of the cheekbones.
