As well as being brought back to the forefront of fashion by several designers, the beret has also been spotted in the wild — and not just in France. Indeed, it has been rocked by some of fashion’s most stylish icons. Still, it’s important to strike a balance when working a beret into a look, so as not to fall into the trap of clichés.

Wearing a blonde wig while enjoying some downtime with friends, Bella Hadid rocks a refreshed, loose-fitting beret, bringing a retro touch to her casual-chic look. It’s a great combination for the Dior ambassador, who is regularly seen sporting hats of all kinds.

In fact, this isn’t the first time that the American supermodel has been seen rocking this year’s hottest headwear — she was snapped last fall wearing a stylish leather beret.
