Breton

A Hat with Cinematic Grace

The Breton is a quiet stunner—short-brimmed, sculptural, and softly romantic, like something from a 1940s film set. With its 12cm structured brim and smooth domed 8cm crown, it brings vintage elegance to modern life—the kind of hat you wear with a linen dress, red lipstick, and a knowing smile.

Woven in natural toquilla straw and finished with just enough structure to hold its poise, the Breton evokes the timeless femininity of Golden Age cinema — a silhouette worn by women who had their gaze, carried a secret, and never hurried.

✦ Key Features

• 12cm Curved Brim
  Short and lifted, just enough to shade the eyes and frame the cheekbones, the silhouette recalls vintage day hats—crisp but full of feeling.

• 8cm Dome Crown
  Gracefully contoured to sit naturally on the head. Structured without stiffness, the shape feels soft, open, and effortless.

• Natural Toquilla Straw
  Handwoven in Ecuador from breathable, lightweight straw. The straw has a soft ivory tone — a classic palette for summer skin and vintage styling.

• Lightweight, Elegant, and Unfussy
  The Breton is easy to wear all day. It is perfect for garden parties, slow mornings, train rides, and the kind of conversations that matter.

• Minimalist Finishing
  Trimmed in black grosgrain with a bow at the back— subtle, elegant, and enduring.

✦ Why It Works

The Breton isn’t loud — it’s unforgettable. It brings a sense of grace and inner stillness, like a well-written line or the final frame of a perfect film. It flatters without trying, and adds a story touch to anything you wear.

It’s ideal for those who feel at home in romance and light, for women who want to feel beautiful in the quietest way.

• Lovers of vintage elegance and romantic styling

• Fair or freckled complexions seeking soft contrast

• Garden parties, weddings, picnics, verandas, and classic summer dressing
