Mens Fashion 2009 - FEDORA POWER
They also call this the “Mandora” according to US Magazine. Fedora’s are back and with a vengeance Spring 2009. I personally don’t think it’s for everyone, but if you can rock it, oh please rock it. I’m getting tired of the caps, toques, doo-rag, gang styled head wraps, and the “I’m Chris Crocker” greasy, haven’t washed in days head. Bring the classy fedoras back!
Don’t believe me? Here take a look, Johnny Depp, Justin Timberlake, even Ashton! Come on now…it’s got to mean something.
If you’re a Fedora person and can totally rock out in one, I suggest getting one in a neutral colour such as dark brown, tan, grey, and black. Keep it simple. The last thing you want is to by something flashy, wear it once and never wear it again. Make sure the height of the Fedora and the width of the brim is right on your face.
Round Head:
Angle your hat and pick simple cuts. The angling will help give angle to the face instead a giant blob at the end of your neck. Find a fedora without a lot of excess detailing or fabric, it’ll just add weight and make your head look clumsy. This goes with any hat you choose as well.
Oval Face:
The one face shape that will look good in any sort of hats. So try it out!
Square Shaped Face:
Find a Fedora with a larger brim and has a bit of a curve to it, this will soften up any odd angles. But if you have that perfect, chiseled jaw-line, then hell accentuate the hardness of your face. Go crazy with the details.
Long Shaped Faces:
Find something that is short in depth, but wide in brim. Don’t angle the placement of your Fedora and just wear it simply low and straight. This will help shorten the length of your face as well play up the mystery a bit with the lower sitting hat. ![]()
Still finding the Perfect Fedora, well I found a great site that helps men pick out the perfect hat for their facial features and even tells you what suit you should wear what colors with. Check it out!
