Quick StyleGuru tips

a. Choose the fedora hat size wisely

Choose your fedora hat in accordance to the proportions of your body, particularly your shoulders. Big fedoras will swamp and overpower a thin or petite frame. Likewise, a small fedora will look undersized on a big frame. Go in for a broader fedora with visible details to balance out a curvy shoulder or hips.

b. Tilt that hat!

For creating that mysterious, sexy look, wear the fedora slightly tilted.

c. Wear wisely

Don't wear the fedora too far up on the head as this will totally defeat the purpose or the style the hat lends.
