2013 Chanel Fall Runway Silver Green Fox Fur Helmut Hat

Karl Lagerfeld has practically designed for Chanel longer than Chanel designed for Chanel. Always reverential to Coco’s sophistication and style, this fur hat evokes the clipped shape of the 1920s-era bob, which was vogue when Chanel opened her first French atelier at 31 rue Cambon, Paris. This helmet hat is made from an indulgently soft fox fur that has been dyed a silvery and frosty green.

Constructed from two simple pieces, the beauty of the materiality is allowed to shine. The “helmet hat” debuted at Chanel’s 2013 fall runway show and was made in a variety of colors which were modeled by many including model/actress Cara Delevingne. Unlined and unfettered, the hat fits snugly over the head and adds a touch of the unexpected to any ensemble. Perfect for cold winter months.

Size: 21-22 inches diameter
