The best straw hat for women is the one that fits your face, your lifestyle and your wardrobe. Round faces look great in wider, structured brims. Oval and heart-shaped faces can pull off almost anything, from a sculpted straw fedora to a soft floppy brim. The general rule: the wider the brim, the more dramatic the moment.
If you want maximum shade and that effortless beach-villa vibe, a wide brim straw hat is the move. Brims of 4 to 6 inches give the best sun coverage while staying easy to style. Pair with a slip dress, white tee, or oversized linen shirt. They're also the most photogenic option for travel content — anything from Santorini to Sayulita just looks right under a wide brim.
The straw cowboy hat and straw cowgirl hat have become summer staples far beyond Nashville. Open-weave western shapes feel light on the head and lean into the country-festival look that's everywhere right now. Look for shapeable brims you can curl to your taste, with cattleman or pinch-front crowns for that traditional silhouette. Available in black, brown, white, pink and red — the four most-searched colors in the US for 2025.
A straw fedora hat sits between casual and elevated. It's the piece that turns a t-shirt and jeans into "I thought about this outfit." Classic Panama fedoras work for both men's straw hats and women's straw hats, and the soft brim makes them packable for travel. Try one with a linen suit at a destination wedding or with denim shorts at a Saturday market.
The straw bucket hat is the playful younger sister of the wide brim. Crocheted, packable and unmistakably bohemian, it's the easiest hat to throw in a beach tote. Multi-color crochet, raffia weaves and woven floral patterns are the top three trends. Bonus: it works for kids' beach days too.
A straw boater hat brings instant vintage charm — think 1920s Paris, garden parties, summer brunches by the river. The flat crown and stiff brim give your outfit structure that no other hat shape can match. Add a contrasting ribbon for that extra editorial touch.
Most of our pieces are designed with women's straw hats in mind, but we carry unisex shapes that work just as well as straw hats for men — particularly the boater, fedora, cowboy and bucket styles. Sizing is adjustable on most models thanks to inner drawstrings, so couples and families can share. For little ones, mini bucket hats and bow-tie sun hats add the sweetest finishing touch to vacation photos.
The fibre changes everything. Raffia straw is naturally pliable, has a slightly rougher texture and that artisan look — perfect for handmade-feeling pieces. Paper straw (the most common in fast-fashion brims) is light, smooth and holds dye well, great for color pop. Wheat straw has a classic golden tone and crisp structure — favored for Panamas and fedoras. Crochet straw uses thinner threads for the softest, most foldable result, ideal for bucket and bob shapes.
Yes — a wide brim (4 inches or more) blocks most direct UV from your face and neck. Tight weaves like Panama and wheat braid block more UV than open crochet patterns. For maximum protection, look for hats labeled UPF 50+.
Packable raffia or wide brim crochet hats are best for the beach: they're lightweight, breathable, and survive being stuffed into a tote. Straw bucket hats are also a popular choice for active beach days.
Store it on a hook or stuff the crown with paper or fabric when not worn. Avoid sitting on it (obvious, but it happens) and never crush it inside a suitcase without protection.
Many shapes are — straw fedoras, boaters, bucket and cowboy hats all work across genders. Our cowgirl, wide-brim sun and floppy styles lean more feminine, while structured fedoras and bucket shapes are easy to share.
We ship across the US with free delivery over $50, and to Canada, the UK and most of Europe with tracked shipping. Hats are carefully boxed to preserve their shape in transit.
