Berluti Just Won the Bucket Hat Olympics
When you think of bucket hats, “luxury” isn’t the first thing that comes to mind — but Berluti might have just changed that.
The brand’s Fall/Winter 21/22 collection debuts new pieces inspired by Russian contemporary artist Lev Khesin, whose use of color and form was coupled with Berluti's signature patina leather sheen.
Our favorite aspect of the collection however is the oversized bucket hats which imbue the fits with an oil-slick colorway and contrasting mohair texture from the top down.
Originally conceived as rain-shielding headwear for fishers and farmers in the 1900s, the bucket hat is most closely associated with ‘90s rave culture. Now, thanks to brands like Stüssy and Carhartt WIP, the bucket hat has become a staple in streetwear. But where streetwear goes, high fashion follows, and now a range of high-end bucket hats from luxury brands wanting to elevate the music festival fashion favorite.
Berluti’s luxury bucket hats won't be available until later this year, so while we’re waiting for Berluti’s mohair creation to drop we've rounded up a selection of designer bucket hats from Marine Serre, Gucci, A.P.C, and more to keep your head covered until then.
Browse the best luxury bucket hats below.

A.P.C X BRAIN DEAD Bucket Hat
