Hats On

Mühlbauer Headwear

There’s a lot to love about winter: big sweaters, cozy fires, snuggling under the covers. But like anything, it has its drawbacks. For instance: unmanageable, frizzed-out hair.

Lucky for you hats are back, and Klaus and Marlies Mühlbauer make the swankest headgear, like, ever.

The siblings are fourth-generation milliners of a 100-year-old family business. Their handcrafted designs are young and fresh yet totally sophisticated. Wrap that messy tress with a pastel turban or add some serious savoir faire to your trousseau with a charming cloche. The straw fedora in white or black will bring oomph to your resort wardrobe.

One warning: These toppers will cost you.

But not nearly as much as those biweekly blowouts.

Available at V.O.D., 2418 Victory Park Lane, Victory Park (214-754-0644). To see styles, go to muehlbauer.at.
