Buying Guide
Berets have been around for hundreds of years, and these stylish, flat, rounded caps can be worn by both men and women who want to make fashion statements. They’re a well-known staple of French fashion and in other parts of the world, and they go in and out of style in the U.S.
Berets can be made from wool, felt, velvet, leather, faux leather, natural leather and other materials and come in various bright colors, neutral hues and patterns. You can also find ones decorated with things like ribbons, extra fabric, tassels or even a bit of bling. Some have bands on the bottoms to keep them secure, while others have drawstrings, leather thongs or thread bands.
Berets are worn by fashionistas, artists and members of the military. Manufacturers don’t always design them to keep the head warm, but there are berets that have warm linings made from cotton, fleece and other toasty materials to give an extra boost of warmth on a cool day. Some are also large enough to cover the ears if you need the added warmth. You can wear berets on the back of the head, flat, pulled down over the years or diagonally — the choice is yours.
Berets match well with casual or dressy outfits and aren’t restricted to outdoor wear with coats and jackets. They look stylish with streetwear like trainers, track pants and hoodies or a button-down shirt and slacks.
You can also pair them with a leather jacket or a tweed coat. This headwear also looks great with sweaters and skirts, dresses and blazers. You can wear them when you’re out on the town, but they’re not quite formal enough for gowns and tuxedos.
What to Look For
- Check the diameter of your head before ordering a beret and read the product description and reviews. Some run small.
- Here are the terms for the different ways of wearing berets: Back on the head is known as halo; flat is pancake; pulled down over the ears is winter and diagonally on one side is fashion style.
- Personalize your beret by adding a brooch or small pin.
- Depending on the material, you may be able to hand wash your beret, but dry cleaning is usually the safest option. For stains, blot with a clean cloth and clean with slightly soapy warm water and a natural sponge or soft brush — don’t get it soaking wet. Let it air dry.
