Fashion Hats

Snow on the sill, a cap with ear flaps, a pom bobbing in the wind. Hats and caps in fur and soft leather were made for cold weather and are worn with ease. Rex rabbit, a breed prized for its dense, velvety plush, is shaped into hats with ear flaps and pom poms in the line of the Russian ushanka and the North American trapper’s cap, and into close-fitting fur caps. The texture is the point: deep pile, soft sheen, a hand that invites touch. Hung on a peg in a mudroom or set on a stack of books in a dressing room, a fur hat brings warmth and a little wit. Winter, answered.
