Fedora Hats for Women
During the late 1800s, women embraced Fedora hats with enthusiasm. The Fedora hat, typically made from animal-based felt, also exists in cap styles using straw, cotton, linen, or leather. As a result, it became a symbol of the Women’s Rights Movement. The Prince of Wales made these hats famous for men in the 1920s. Today, both genders admire this classic hat, valuing its film noir style and year-round head and face protection.
Classic fedoras boast various brim widths coupled with a pinched or indented crown. At Eric Javits, we sell a diverse selection of fedora hats online for both men and women. These hats are crafted from hand-blocked felt for winter or our Squishee® sun protection straw for summer. Explore our website to see a range of shapes and trims in the current collection.

The Allure of the Fedora Hat
The Roaring Twenties made the fedora an American fashion staple. Fashion trends come and pass, but this sleek design continues to take center stage. And that’s not surprising considering how many modern variations of the original have come into fashion. There’s a style suitable for almost anyone. Despite the continuous evolution of design, the fundamental basics of a fedora are:
The fedora has inspired so many hat styles that you must mention the trilby when you mention fedora. Although very similar in design, there are distinctions. The trilby has a 2” or less brim size, earning itself the nickname “stingy brim hat.” The fedora’s brim has a 2” to 3” brim length. Another design feature that sets them apart is the trilby, which has a turned-up back brim and a slightly downward-leaning front. The fedora has a flexible brim that allows for a bit of versatility.
Wearing and Styling Your Fedora
The fedora should sit comfortably above the ears at the center of your forehead. A properly fitting hat should sit two fingers above your eyebrows. Although the traditional style is wearing it straight, many people tilt it slightly. You can wear this casually and formally with as many styles and materials as possible.
Choosing a Color
Traditionally, you would choose a brighter color for warmer seasons and darker colors for warmer seasons. But fashion has become seasonless. Everything goes all year round.
Type of Material
Straw fedora hats keep you cool in warmer months, while fedoras of felt and wool keep you warm. Many wearers don straw hats yearly because designer straw fedora hats are versatile.
Appearance
The shape of the brim affects how the fedora will look. It’s custom to snap the back brim up and have a slight downward slope on the front. Overall, how you wear and style your fedora hat is entirely up to personal taste. Here are a few options from the designer straw fedora hats collection.
