Bespoke Suit Matches Hat (1)

We all know the lyrics conjured by Ira Gershwin, famously touching upon that aspect of headgear so often overlooked; the way a hat is worn. So out of touch are we with the practice of wearing a hat that many gentlemen forget that there is as much art in putting a hat on as there is in manufacturing it.


During the time when everyone wore headgear, the man who stood out from the crowd generally wore a hat that was not only of the highest quality but also of the most individual and flattering aesthetic.


Gentlemen reading these words may perceive this concern to be small beer; after all, how difficult can it be to wear a hat well?


If the few men who march around in fedoras and trilbies are anything to go by, it appears to be a problem for the majority. The assumption, it seems to me, is that a hat should do all the work. Some men merely plonk a hat on their head expecting a Bogart visage to appear in the looking-glass; hand-hat-head-front door seems to be the sequence in their minds. Unfortunately, a little more effort is required to achieve the best effect from an item of headgear. And this consideration of how a hat will appear should always be addressed at the milliners.
