Cream Flat Cap

A cream flat cap brightens a dark winter coat in a way black or brown cannot. This one is a soft knit acrylic cap with a short brim, cut to a 56-58 cm head size that suits many women and men with smaller heads. More shapes, including fuller paneled styles, are in our newsboy caps.

Wearing a Cream Flat Cap With Winter Layers

Light colors near the face soften dark clothing, so cream works with a charcoal coat, a navy peacoat or a black turtleneck. Match it to a cream or oatmeal scarf and you have a simple set for city walks, a weekend market or a train trip. The knit stays soft on the forehead and holds a bit of warmth when the wind picks up.

A Cream Flat Cap at a 1920s Party

For a Gatsby or speakeasy evening, cream reads as a summer, garden-party choice. Pair it with a white shirt, suspenders and light trousers, or with a pleated skirt and a cardigan for a women's version. It also suits a vintage-themed picnic or a Charleston class, where a dark felt hat would feel too heavy.

Cream Flat Cap FAQ

Does cream show dirt quickly?

Light colors show marks sooner than dark ones. The supplier gives no care instructions, so treat it gently: dab small marks with a damp cloth and let the cap dry flat.

Is it only for women?

No. The design is unisex; the 56-58 cm size simply fits smaller heads, which is why it works for so many women.

What is it made of?

The supplier lists acrylic in a knit construction.
