How to Choose the Perfect Straw Hat For Your Face Shape

Updated: Jul 11


Selecting the perfect straw hat involves understanding your face shape and choosing a style that complements your features. However, in our era, with so many styles available, you might find it challenging to choose the right one that compliments your face. There are generally 5 general types into which face shapes are divided and each is enhanced by different shapes of accessories. This guide will help you select the perfect straw hat that can enhance your features and fit comfortably as well. 


  1. Round faces  Round faces are characterised by fuller cheeks and a rounded jawline. Tall crowns and medium brims can enhance this type of face cut. So fedoras and Panama hats suit them best. Look for hats that make your face appear longer and well-defined while balancing the cheeks at the same time.

  2. Oval face  Oval faces can wear almost any hat, as they are the most versatile face shape. Fedoras and Panama hats are good choices because they bring out the symmetry of an oval face while adding a classic touch. Boater hats are also a good choice, as the flat top and wide brim go well with the balanced shape of an oval face.

  3. Square face People with strong jawlines and broad foreheads should wear hats that soften their features. Floppy straw hats and bowler hats also work well because their rounded shape contrasts with the strong lines of a square face.

  4. Heart face  People with wide foreheads and narrow chins should choose hats that balance their faces. Medium brims and fedoras with soft brims can help achieve this. Cloche hats can also work well by drawing attention away from the forehead to the lower part of the face.

  5. Rectangular face A rectangular face is usually longer than wide with a high forehead, so wide brim straw hats can provide proportions to create a harmonious look. Low crowns and floppy hats that add to lateral proportions can also be suitable for longer faces.


In conclusion, finding the perfect straw hat involves understanding your face shape and choosing styles that can enhance you naturally.
