Top hat St. Patricksday

The St. Patrick's Day top hat is a green glitter cylinder hat with a black band and a square gold-colored buckle. Wear it on St. Patrick's Day, the Irish holiday when green is the colour of the day, in the pub, on the street or at an Irish party at home. The hat is designed for women and men, so a whole group of friends can wear the same one.

Why green and a buckle are associated with the Irish holiday

St. Patrick's Day honours Saint Patrick, the patron saint of Ireland, and is also celebrated far beyond Ireland. Green represents the Emerald Isle and the shamrock, Ireland's most famous symbol. The top hat with a buckle comes from Irish folklore about the leprechaun, a small fairy who, according to legend, wears a green hat like this. Anyone who puts on this glitter hat instantly brings that image to the party.

From a green hat to a complete leprechaun look

A green glitter hat only becomes a real fairy look when the rest of your outfit matches. Choose a green jacket or cardigan with a black belt to echo the black band and gold-colored buckle on the hat. A red beard or red sideburns make the Irish look instantly recognisable, as does a shamrock on your lapel or painted on your cheek. Women can incorporate more green with a skirt or green tights.
