Fedora. Such
a beautiful, mellifluous name for something that is hideous ninety- percent of
the time. What was once a symbol of
refinement is now the accessory of choice for club-going, bulging-muscled
meatheads and Don-Draper wannabes. I
chose to pay homage to one of my favorite fictional heroes, Indiana Jones, with
this wide-brimmed felt fedora. While my
tastes are anything but simplistic or minimalist, when contemplating this type
of hat, I recommend keeping it simple and clean. Save the feathers, ribbon trimmings, and other
embellishments for your other accessories.
