Wooden Headwear Enters the Fashion Scene

While you still might be getting your head around wooden shoes and handbags, there’s a new entrant into this woody fashion trend for you to quite literally get your head around. While they’re sure to get a second glance for how they look, TETES DE BOIS’ wooden headwear is more than just a look-at-me fashion statement. The hats have been designed so that the wooden slates cleverly block out the sun’s rays; an incredible child of architecture, industrial design and fashion.

It’s almost certain that it will only be the daring early adopters of fashion who will don the ice block stick look to begin with. However, with the chatter that these headpieces have been getting in Europe, it won’t be too much of a surprise to see the slated head gear cropping up as an alternative source of shade in the Southern Hemisphere next summer.
