Elevate your boho look with an a-line brim + a double-strand rope band with brass. The glimmer of the brass against the dark wheat weave has a sophistication that will take your bohemian hat style up a notch. 

Wide Brim Hat

Let your hair down underneath a flat crown that won’t restrict your natural locks. If you have a full head of curls + you want to let them flow freely in true bohemian fashion, adjust your inner band to give your hair a little more room.

A wide-brimmed boater crown in black can fit with any free-flowing boho-chic vibe, especially with a patterned band that fits around the crown just above the brim.
