Autumn / Winter Trend: The Bobble Beanie

Leah Harper — Tue, 18 Oct 2011 13:19:09 +0000

Remember that photograph of you from the mid-nineties: you in an anorak jacket and thick prescription glasses, stood next to a slightly taller family member, the both of you grinning away in matching beanie bobble hats? Well that, my friend, is your fashion inspiration for when it comes to outdoor style over the coming seasons.

Ok, so you might want to lose the glasses, and upgrade the Millets anorak to a stylish Barbour alternative, but the bobble beanie should still remain. The whole premise, in fact, is very much the same – except that you’ll want to look like you’ve finally graduated from the junior ramblers society and gone on to become a fully fledge fisherman instead. Whether or not you live remotely close to any source of open water is irrelevant, simply grow yourself a beard (in any style which might potentially be described as ‘rugged’), don a sturdy pair of winter boots, and accessorise with a fitted bobble beanie. If possible, try to furrow your brow, and stare meaningfully towards the horizon at any given opportunity – if you venture towards East London, you’ll notice that the trendiest of folk have been practising this last part for some time.

Of course, if you’re cursed with a baby-soft complexion which will never allow you to pass as a hardened man of the sea, then you’re better going for the slouchy bobble beanie. The stripy jumper trend has been done to death, so the bobble beanie is simply the next style-step when it comes to channelling that look of Where’s Wally-chic. As an offshoot of the trend for all things Nordic, there are more Scandinavian-inspired bobble beanies in shops this season than Sunday shoppers at IKEA. Aran, Fair Isle and cable-knit styles can also be found doing the rounds when it comes to this particular accessory. Team with a classic crew-neck jumper and slim-fit jeans – unless, of course, you’re just an overly enthusiastic Geography teacher, in which case you’ll want an Ordnance Survey map and something by The North Face, I’d imagine.
