A raised cloche hat is a variation of the cloche hat, an iconic style from the 1920s. The cloche hat has a fitted crown that fits snugly on the head and a narrow brim. In the case of a raised cloche hat, the brim is lifted upwards to create a different shape that highlights the wearer’s face, drawing attention to their facial features. The cloche hat has a clean and fitted shape that accentuates the posture.
It can be easily worn with different hairstyles, offering true comfort while providing particular protection for the nape and ears.
In the 1940s and 1950s, Dior played a significant role in reintroducing and popularizing the cloche hat, especially by reimagining it with raised brims. In the 1970s, Saint Laurent, known for his ability to reinterpret and modernize classic fashion styles, reintroduced this type of hat in collections with timeless elegance and a strong sense of modernity.
