The Mexican sombrero child Puebla is a children's hat with a conical crown and wide brim striped with red, purple, yellow, and blue-green bands. Put it on over a light shirt or a yellow summer top and your child will instantly have a Mexican look. The hat is made for boys and girls and is most commonly worn during carnival and at a Mexican-themed party.
This is what the children's Puebla hat looks like
- The hat is made of 100% palm leaf.
- The crown and brim are made up of woven bands in red, purple, yellow, and blue-green.
- The crown tapers high and conical, and the wide brim curls slightly upwards on the outside.
- Visible stitches run along the bands to hold the woven work together.
- Because the four colors appear on both the crown and the brim, the hat remains equally colorful from the front, side, and back, so choose it if you want to see the color from all angles.
- The hat is intended for children, both boys and girls.
What makes a Mexican hat for children so recognizable?
You recognize a Mexican hat by its high crown and extra-wide brim, which originally provided shade against the bright sun. The Spanish name of the hat is also derived from this, because sombra means shade. As a costume hat, it stands for fiesta and mariachi music, and precisely the colorful bands make it a party hat instead of a work hat. Therefore, it fits just as well in a carnival parade as at a children's party with a Mexican theme.
From children's hat to complete Mexican outfit
You only receive the hat, you put together the rest of the outfit yourself. A white or light yellow short-sleeved shirt makes the red and blue-green bands stand out well, and a striped poncho keeps your child warm during an outdoor parade. For girls, a yellow summer dress or top that picks up the yellow band from the hat works well. A painted sun on the cheek or a couple of maracas in hand completes the Mexican look.
Choose the Mexican sombrero child Puebla for a child who wants to take to the streets in four colors during carnival or at a Mexican children's party.
