March 28, 2023 at 01:15AM
Bucket hats are a seriously great style to wear during the spring and summer months. Not only can the relaxed accessory help protect you from harsh sun exposure, but it also works to elevate any outfit with a breezier flair. Unlike sun hats or a basic baseball cap, bucket hats provide full-coverage protection on your head, allowing you to keep your scalp and ears covered on even the warmest days without messing up your hair in the process.
Regardless of your style preferences, there are also so many different types of bucket hats to shop for the new season that can make a welcomed addition to your spring wardrobe – whether you’re in the market for a trendy fashion bucket hat, something timeless like a ‘90s bucket hat, or even stylish bucket hats that are versatile enough to be worn to brunch, the beach, and beyond.
These days, you’ll find no shortage of great bucket hat brands to shop from, but few are as beloved by fashion editors as Lack of Color. To help you search out the perfect style for your closet, we enlisted the expertise of Tess Corvaia, co-founder of , to break down why the accessory is predicted to trend this spring, and what you should look for when buying a bucket hat of your own.
What to Consider When Shopping Out Bucket Hats:
According to Corvaia, there’s a reason shoppers can expect to see more bucket hat styles popping up in stores and online this season. “Bucket hats are really the perfect hat for people who think they aren’t hat people! They’re an accessory that you can throw on any time, versatile for all kinds of activities, for all kinds of people and all kinds of hair,” says Corvaia. While the accessory certainly isn’t new to mainstream fashion, it’s seen a resurgence over the last few years, with celebrities like Hailey Bieber, Kylie Jenner, and Dua Lipa all putting their own spin on the accessory.
Corvaia notes that when shopping out bucket hats, there are a few key things to look out for to ensure you’re investing in a style that’ll last. “Fabric is definitely key – we’ve had a lot of our wool, cotton, and straw fabrics tested for their UPF rating, and all perform well under the sun.” She also explains that even more important than the product’s material is its fabric weave. “Most of our straw styles are tightly woven by hand to ensure elevated sun protection (think the Inca Bucket Hat) and minimize gaps between the fibers. Poorer quality straw or material, and poor manufacturing processes will likely impact a style’s sun protection, so that’s definitely something to watch out for,” says Corvaia.
To help you search for the best bucket hats for women, we rounded up the most stylish ones to stock up on this season – with pieces from brands like Lululemon, H&M, Madewell, Urban Outfitters, Amazon, and more. From leather bucket hats and snug crochet styles to straw bucket hats that are equally breathable and chic, these are our favorites.
