20 Felt Winter Hats to Replace Your Beanie Obsession

Nov 11, 2014

When you think of winter headwear, chances are your mind goes straight to those warm and snuggly beanies. We love a knitted cap as much as the next gal, but we think the beanie is favored a bit too heavily during those chilly winter months. In freezing temperatures it may not seem like it, but you have other headwear options. Switch things up this winter – as temperatures continue to drop, forget about the beanies and try one of these classy, felt hats instead.

1. Veil Floppy Hat ($42): Cozy up under this wide-brimmed beauty and add a sexy, mysterious element with a little bit of veil.

2. Maise Lock Felt Fedora ($98): Slip into winter in the slickest way possible with this violet number.

3. Catarzi Classic Fedora ($66): Winter may turn most of nature white, but you can keep green going with this vibrant, structured hat.

4. Gray and Camel Floppy Hat ($28): Can’t decide which color you like best? Have them both. The dual-tone element definitely makes this cap standout, but the neutral colors still allow you to wear it with almost anything.

5. Janessa Leone Gabrielle Hat ($168): If you’re not so sure about your head in a hat, try this option, which is a little more subtle but still beautifully structured.

6. Georgina Fedora ($365): Embrace those cool, shimmery shades of winter with this heather grey and silver wool felt fedora. Prepare to turn a lot of heads in this baby.

7. Hand Draped Red Felt Cloche ($189): Carmen Sandiego? Is that you? Pay homage to the mysterious character with this crimson jem.

8. Borsalino Felt Hat ($271): This classic black hat is tame enough to go with pretty much anything, but adds a pop of fun with a velvety gold ribbon.

9. Coal Gwen Felt Cloche Hat ($52): Try this updated take on the ’20s inspired cloche hat with this fun twisted brim.

10. Wool Panama Hat ($15): Burgundy is popping up everywhere this winter — why not take on the trend head first?

11. Patton Porkpie Hat ($58): Stand out from the crowd with this old-school, porkpie-style top hat. Tip that tête forward and show off the delicate ribbon trim.

12. Oh Darling Hat ($48): Sometimes you just can’t beat a classic combo. This beige and brown wide-brimmed hat will match everything and looks good on any hair color.

13. Buffalo Nickel Leather Hat ($54): Go back to the Wild Wild West with this Western-style genuine leather hat with studs and Buffalo nickel embellishments.

14. Jasmine Wool Hat ($58): Just because it’s winter doesn’t mean you have to cover yourself in black. Add a pop of color to your look with this minty green topper.

15. Dents Ladies Large Floppy Brim Hat ($54): Sass up a staple with a little bit o’ leopard.

16. Leopard Print Blocked Beret ($315): And if a leopard accent just isn’t enough, go full-on feline with this felt blocked piece compete with ears.

17. Happily Ember After Hat ($35): Charm the pants off of everyone you see in this darling little number. Wear it with a scarf and coat or dress it up with a cocktail dress.

18. Feather Trim Floppy Felt Fedora ($38): A little bit floppy, a little bit feathered, a whole lot of fun.

Why Timothée Chalamet Abandoned “Good Friend” Austin Butler’s ‘Elvis’ Method For Bob Dylan Role

Austin Butler as Elvis, Selena Gomez as Linda Rondstat, and now Timothée Chalamet as Bob Dylan — there will never be enough biopics for me! (The real question is when are we going to get a Taylor Swift movie?). When pictures from the set of the new Bob Dylan movie, A Complete Unknown, hit Twitter, I had to do a double take because Timothée Chalamet looks so much like the musician I couldn't believe my eyes! You can watch the A Complete Unknown trailer here.

Timothée is going to be joined by Met Gala queen Elle Fanning, as well as Top Gun superstar Monica Barbaro. Here's everything you need to know about the movie — and our favorite Bob Dylan songs to listen to while you wait for its release.

Keep reading to see the latest updates from Timothée Chalamet's Bob Dylan biopic A Complete Unknown.

Timothée Chalamet stars in A Complete Unknown, coming to theaters December 25, 2024.
He's joined by Elle Fanning and Monica Barbaro.
The movie follows Bob Dylan's career in the 1960s as he rises to fame and later shifts from folk to rock'n'roll.

Did Timothée Chalamet take inspiration from Austin Butler’s Elvis?

Timothée Chalamet recently revealed that while he originally wanted to approach A Complete Unknown by taking direct inspiration from Bob Dylan, he quickly changed his tone...so to speak. "Somebody once said to me, you can't make a movie about a painter because it's not interesting to watch paint dry," he says in People's exclusive video. "Bob has that element because he's not one of these forward-facing musicians."

While Timmy saw Natalie Portman a sequence in Jackie "step-for-step exactly what Jackie did," and paid attention to "all this stuff that I saw my good friend Austin Butler crush it with on Elvis," he quickly realized "I gotta do none of this because this is not my style."

"Bob did not have a vocal coach," he continues. "He had two bottles of red wine and four packs of cigarettes. There's no way to impersonate that." One of my favorite things about biopics is seeing how a well-known actor portrays a recognizable figure. And you can see Timothée Chalamet's interpretation of Bob Dylan in theaters December 25!

Monica Barbaro Sings Her Heart Out

We got a look at Monica Barbaro as singer-songwriter Joan Baez, who was one of the first major artists in the 1960s to record Bob Dylan's music!

I was super impressed to learn Timothée showed up and sang live for the film. "It was important for me to play and sing on set because it was in the spirit of the movie to do it live," he says in a video from People. "Many of the artists through American pop culture that had the balls to turn their back on what was expected of them, that moment started with Bob. His words are relevant; 'Times They are A Changing' ' is relevant, 'Blowin' in the Wind' is relevant."

Elle Fanning totally embodies the late '60s vibe in this fall outfit. The bold maroon blazer, the long straight hair, and the striped turtleneck — I love it all! Elle is starring this Bob Dylan movie as Sylvie Russo, a university student and artist Bob falls for in the '60s.

Thanks to some onset leaks, we also got a glimpse of the movie's version of The Freewheelin'! Elle Fanning and Timothée Chalamet look incredible as Sylvia Russo and Bob Dylan. I'm a sucker for any kind of recreation, so seeing this new version of the classic record cover is incredible!!

The First Pictures From Timothée Chalamet's Bob Dylan Movie

Timothée Chalamet has totally transformed into Bob Dylan on the set of A Complete Unknown. And when I saw the pictures of Timothée carrying the guitar my jaw dropped!! He completely engrossed himself in Wonka and Dune 2 and I'm so excited to see him do the same for this Bob Dylan movie.

What is the movie about Bob Dylan called?

A Complete Unknown Plot

Timothée Chalamet's Bob Dylan movie is called A Complete Unknown. The movie filmed around New York City in the spring of 2024, and James Mangold is serving as director (you might recognize his name from Logan, Girl, Interrupted, and Walk the Line). The movie will cover the period during the 1960s when Bob Dylan shifted from folk to rock'n'roll, changing the face of pop culture (and culture in general, TBH), forever.

"When that movie finally comes out, people are going to be shocked because you're going to think you're hearing Bob Dylan sing," vocal coach Eric Vetro tells PEOPLE. "[Timothée Chalamet] just has this uncanny ability to not impersonate, but really breathe life into it. He's embodying Bob Dylan and what he was like at that age."

A Complete Unknown Release Date

A Complete Unknown will hit theaters on December 25, 2024. And since Timothée Chalamet has been seen in turtlenecks, hats, and jackets on set, this sounds like the perfect cozy movie to me!

I always need some brand new music to listen to once the weather gets chilly, and I will for sure be listening to anything Timothée records.

What song did Bob Dylan write for a movie?

Bob Dylan wrote "Things Have Changed" for the 2000 movie Wonder Boys, which starred Michael Douglas, Tobey Maguire, and Katie Holmes. This Bob Dylan song ended up winning the Academy Award for Best Original Songand the Golden Globe Award for Best Original Song!

"Knockin' On Heaven's Door," which is arguably the singer's most popular track, was released two months after the 1973 premiere of Pat Garrett and Billy the Kid as a part of the film's soundtrack.

What are some other Bob Dylan songs to listen to?

I totally agree that one of the best Bob Dylan songs is "Knockin' On Heaven's Door," but "Blowin' In The Wind" and "The Times They Are A-Changin'" are also great songs to listen to if you're a new Bob Dylan fan. So far, "The Times They Are A-Changin'" is my personal favorite song.

His style is the perfect blend of rock and folk that reminds me of summer picnics and walks in the woods. His sound also reportedly inspired Taylor Swift's Folklore!
