Jacquemus Le Grand Chapeau Bomba

We bet you can't name a celebrity who hasn't given into the urge to try Jacquemus’ grand oversized beach hat, which is nothing short of a statement.

Inspired by "the Marseille woman", his Le Grand Chapeau Bomba has gone viral since the designer kicked off SS18 Paris Fashion Week with a parade of effortlessly sexy beach bombshell looks rich in tailoring, delicately draped onto every model. His La Bomba hat is no exception in expressing beach-lux.

Prada Shell Bucket Hat

Prada’s AW18 Menswear collection surprised us when they revived their archival nylon goods, introducing a sporty gender-fluid aesthetic.

The bucket hat echoes the controversial black nylon backpacks created by Miuccia Prada in 1985, which hinted at rebellion and feminism. This stylish piece can casually accessorise your outfits all year round, while making a gentle nod to second-wave feminism.
