tutulle

Tutulle is a traditional French hat, typically worn by men, that is characterized by its wide brim and flat crown. The term "tutulle" is derived from the French word "tutoyer," which means to address someone on a familiar first-name basis, reflecting the hat's association with a more informal or casual style of dress. The tutulle is often made from felt or straw and is secured with a ribbon or cord around the back of the head. It is commonly worn during the summer months and is often paired with other casual attire, such as linen trousers and a linen shirt. The tutulle has a long history in French fashion, dating back to the 19th century, and has been worn by various figures in French culture, including artists and intellectuals. Today, the tutulle remains a popular choice for those seeking a stylish yet relaxed look.
