    I suggest opting for a gentle, low bun at the back when wearing a flat cap. The hat's intricate details speak volumes, allowing you to keep your hairstyle minimal. With a hat on, you can effortlessly pull all your hair back and complement it with subtle makeup to accentuate your features. Whether you prefer a makeup-free look or have specific preferences regarding hairstyles, the versatility of flat caps allows for various choices. I lean towards recommending a pulled-back style, like a cute bun, ensuring that there's no hair framing the face. Even if you choose to secure it in a ponytail, consider styling it into an adorable bun due to the hat's distinctive shape. For those not keen on buns, a sleek, straight hairstyle, free of curls or waves, works perfectly. Keeping it simple and chic is key, allowing the hat to take center stage.

    Plain white and black can always be helpful; a simple white long-sleeve shirt, Ramones jacket and skinny jeans can work with that hat.

    Of course, flat caps can be versatile to go with many outfits. That being said, it is a more vintage style, and wearing very large and flashy sneakers may be too much contrast. Try to go more for sleek shapes and neutral colors.

    Use a gentle cleanser like Woolite. Wash it in lukewarm water and let it soak for 5-10 minutes. Then wash the soap out until there are no suds left.
