The bowler hat distinctive crown traces its origins back to the 16th century, when England (under Oliver Cromwell’s puritanical rule) embraced more understated dress. Out went extravagance, in came restraint. From this, the rounded silhouette that would become the modern bowler emerged.

Over time, the bowler has evolved. The tricorn and bicorn hats of military tradition were, at their core, wide-brimmed bowlers. Brim width signified rank, while crown height denoted social standing and in these cases, the brims were so broad they had to be folded up for practicality.

By the early 20th century, as the tall formality of top hats began to wane, the bowler rose in their place. The beauty of the bowler lies in its versatility; bridging class and circumstance barriers. Charlie Chaplin famously adopted it as the signature of his ‘gentleman vagabond’ — a subtle nod to aspiration, dignity and defiance.
