Chanel's pre-fall 2024 show in Manchester featured models parading down the runway in tweed suits and matching newsboy caps, sparking a resurgence of the controversial hat. Penélope Cruz later wore a similar cap to a photo call in Madrid, further solidifying the trend.
The newsboy cap, once a staple of the early 20th century, has experienced a renaissance in recent years.
Celebrities such as Idris Elba, Harry Styles, and Leonardo DiCaprio have all sported the hat, with David Beckham and Brooklyn Beckham also sharing a love for the flat cap. However, it seems that men are more likely to don the newsboy cap than women, with Anna Sui's 1920s-inspired collection being a notable exception.
Dolce & Gabbana took a more daring approach, incorporating black lace, netting, and risqué cuts into their designs.
