Wool Felt
Wool Felt
Do you want to be noticed in the high street and shopping mall? Do you aspire to be chique, elegant, sophisticated? Are you looking to add the finishing touches to your outfit? This fall and winter the catwalks are hosting that ultimate in fashion accessories, the ubiquitous beret. So long associated with la mode francaise, the beret is now being seen as the international symbol of chique elegance. The beret is now showing in a wide range of trendy colours and with simple yet elegant trimming, you can add the finishing touches to complement your outfit, or use the beret to make a genuine fashion statement.
The beret truly is multi-functional. Having a bad hair day? Cover it with a simple beret. Enjoying the fall weather in jeans and jumper? Finish the look with a funky beret. Going out with someone special? Complete your outfit with an elegant, custom-designed beret.
The styles and colour combinations now available will satisfy even the most discerning shopper. Big colourful appliques, net and bead combinations, bold, bright geometric shapes, buttons and bows, all combine to match your mood and manner. And for little girls wanting to be just like Mummy, you can choose from a cute range of kids berets, specially designed for that pretty little madam!
Be careful when you are selecting your beret, as cheap imports from the Far East are often made from inferior quality materials which will pill and fluff with even a little handling. Look for a reasonable weight of wool felt, which has a smooth, even feel and is not transparent when held up to the light. This will ensure your beret will retain its shape and appearance throughout the entire season. Not to mention keeping your head warm on those cold winter days!
An elegant relief from the knitted beanie, but not so formal as the predictable hat, the beret is emerging as THE fashion item for fall and winter 2009.
Jane Maze is an Irish designer who, with her daughter, has been involved in the fashion trade in the UK and Ireland. See more of their unique designs and elegant berets at http://www.straw-beret.com
What are the Pros/Cons of Wool vs. Felt Fedoras?
The style’s are similar, but as far as practical uses, esp. practical camping uses, which is better and why? What are the downsides of each?
usually when talking felt we are talking wool………because it can be felted……..so maybe you are talking cheap verses expensive……………IDK>
