CEBU, Philippines - There’s another sporty accessory that’s about to enter the spotlight. Believe it or not, this time around, it’s the baseball cap.
The mix might seem a bit off at first glance, but allow this combination to settle in, and you’ll slowly see that this has striking parallelisms to the way modern women have evolved.
Although the combination is more than the usual, it’s worth saying that like the modern woman, the baseball cap—paired with feminine elements like a leather skirt—can come across as something bold, edgy, and sexy.
From Alexander Wang to DKNY, here’s a quick rundown on how to keep up with the baseball cap’s boyish beat.
Femme and Fabulous
The charm lies in the stark contrasts of the elements. Boyish baseball cap meets knitted cardigans and delicate lace. It’s like the Stepford wives stepping out of their perfect little homes and manicured lawns and into the baseball field. This interpretation says sugar, spice, and all things nice.
Urban Chic
This is a bit tricky but if you’re in the mood for something that’s both laid-back yet sharp, the way to wearing the baseball cap is by channeling this piece the Donna Karan way.
Think of a sexy bustier paired with a slightly flared skirt and sky-high heels in shades of white and black. And while you are donning the feminine silhouette, the steely urban shades are there to keep your act modern.
Minimalist Mood
The only accessory you’ll need is the baseball cap, and the only colors you’ll need are neutrals. Wearing the baseball cap to project a futuristic feel means throwing on huge threads, which are reminiscent of the American Football—and a pair of thigh-high boots to balance the billowing top.
Oriental Touch
It’s about the accessories and the texture. In Jeremy Scott’s interpretation, the baseball cap comes in exotic animal skin, which renders a very unique twist.
