Kangol has shaken off its hip-hop and gangster connotations with their new spring/ summer 2014 collection. The brand, often associated with cheese-tastic actor Samuel L Jackson and his backward berets has had a total revamp, now being championed by the likes of Binky from Made In Chelsea.
Are you looking for something for the beach this summer and sick of the same old fedoras? Look to Kangol for panamas and trilbies this season in natural beige and cream colours or go for a daring ruby red piece.
This Kangol collection will be your perfect accessory this summer, whether you are jetting off for a beach break in a far-flung destination or simply for afternoons in a park enjoying the British summer. Here is how we would style them…
Think Grecian tranquil beach and enjoy these natural cream and gold colours. This Kate Moss for Topshop kaftan (£85) can take you from beach to night, and the gorgeous embellishment running across it will be twinkling in the sunset as you enjoy your vino at a beach-side restaurant. Accessorise with a bold tote, and of course your Kangol fedora in a dove shade.
For casual city days, kick back in your ruby New Balances (£75) to coordinate with this ruby ‘Empress’ trilby from Kangol (£78). Keep the rest of your outfit simple yet chic with a casual tee and a pair of classic distressed Levi’s (£45).
Shop the S/S 14 Heritage range here, and take your Kangol from festival to holiday this summer!
