What are the drawbacks of having a large cotton jacket and vest arranged for winter? Finally, it was discovered that there was less on the head to keep warm.

 

Although people no longer attach great importance to wearing hats, they only exist as accessories. But in the beginning, hats were also representatives of class and identity. In the 17th century, hats began to become symbolic symbols of different classes: citizens wore dark hats, yellow hats represented bankrupts, prisoners wore paper hats, kings wore gold crowns, and so on.

 

In 20th-century Europe, wearing a hat for men was a symbol of gentlemanly attire, and like suits and ties, it was a necessity for the dress code. If a gentleman goes out without a hat, it will be considered impolite, and their daily life is to repeatedly wear a hat and remove it.

 

Especially in the UK, hats and etiquette are closely related. For example, when visiting friends, be sure to take off your hat first after entering the house. When encountering a woman, the way to greet them is to take off your hat, because shaking hands when meeting a woman in the past is not allowed. When encountering important people, taking off one's hat represents respect.

 

Among many gentlemen's hats, there is a hat with a unique cultural background, as it is the favorite of gang leaders. It is the men's fedora hats. It is often seen in Hollywood movies, whether it is an old-fashioned gentleman in Europe and America, a newspaper reporter, a Chicago gang, or a private detective, all wearing a Fedora, which was the most popular male hat in the 1940s.

 

Despite Fedora's cold and uninhibited image, the first woman to wear Fedora was Sarah Bernhardt, the actress in the 1889 French drama F é Dora. She likes to dress up as a man in the play and wears a wide-brimmed felt hat, which is named Fedora.

 

Fedora hat, a light top men's fedora hat, has a unique design where the crown is not round or flat, but rather a concave center with a large dent in the middle and two small dents on the front. This design is designed to facilitate gentlemen to have a place to grip the crown when taking off their hats, with a height ranging from 10cm to 16cm. The brim of the hat is quite wide, ranging from 5cm to 10cm. Sometimes ribbons or leather are used to close the edges, and sometimes a nonclosing method is used to appear casual.

 

Fedora's true popularity was actually due to the gangster culture of the 1920s. At that time, the United States was in the period of prohibition. Many Irish and Italians who had wandered from other places carried out gang activities in the form of small groups. Their classic appearance was a suit, trench coat, men's fedora hats, and everyone had a "Chicago typewriter" Thompson submachine gun.
