You’ve probably noticed it: this summer, baseball caps are making a big comeback. Whether they’re chic, colorful, vintage, or sporty, they’re everywhere: from the streets of New York to the stands at Roland Garros. The celebrities aren’t hiding from the trend either.
Hailey Bieber pairs a New York Yankees cap with a casual-chic vibe. Emily Ratajkowski, for her part, even went so far as to wear a cap as a swimsuit (yes, seriously!) for a bold shoot. The stars also use them to subtly showcase their personality: plain caps, logos, personal messages… a stylish, relaxed way to get noticed.
The cap is the miracle piece: it protects you from the sun, tames “bad hair” days, and elevates a super-simple silhouette into a polished outfit without effort. It can also take on a vintage, sporty, or even arty vibe. In short, it’s a versatile, cool, affordable, and clearly indispensable item to pack for summer.
Why the stars love it
Celebrities are obsessed with the cap because it adds instant style with zero effort. Whether worn with jeans, a dress, or athletic wear, it transforms any look into a cool, laid-back vibe.
There’s also room for playful details: quirky little messages, discreet logos, or unexpected colors. The cap becomes a genuine accessory that shows off your personality without going over the top.
Which cap should you wear on your head this summer
Chic and elegant: You want something polished? Choose a cap in premium wool or cotton, understated, in neutral tones. Beyoncé wears one in light gray, which perfectly conveys a cool, refined vibe.
Vintage or colorful: MLB logos, retro colors, or pop embroidery are perfect for adding a punch to your outfit. Ideal for street-style looks and city vibes of matches or vacations.
