Bucket hats are back, and the trend is making a huge comeback in 2022! These hats originally became popular back in the ’90s when it was worn by Britpop icons, Oasis, and The Stone Roses, but eventually faded away from the world of fashion as new trends and styles came about. Today, more and more young people are wearing bucket hats as part of a ’90s renaissance that Gen-Z fashion has currently appropriated as their own.

Some of our favorite celebrities, such as Billie Eilish, Rihanna, and Dua Lipa, are bringing back the esoteric ’90s look, and we could not be more thrilled! If you’ve been wanting to hop on this trend, we’ve got all the bucket hat inspo that your heart desires and a few ways to style them, too!

Trendy Bucket Hats in 2022

Kangol is a clothing brand based in England known for their stylish and functional headwear. This company knows their hats, and they are READY for bucket hat season. One of their most popular items is the Washed Bucket Hat. This comes in nine different colors as well as five sizes ranging from small to XXL. However, this simple style is not what makes them unique.

They have a variety of different styles, such as the Dash Quilted Bin, which has a quilted velour material and even features ear flaps on the inside to keep you warm during the winter.

Another one of their styles that is out of this world is their Liquid Mercury Bucket. This hat has a slightly textured material with a gorgeous sheen that will be the cherry on the cake for any outfit!

Nothing screams the ’90s like colorful bucket hats. The bright colors and fun patterns make this trend the perfect accessory to complete your outfit.

There is also one with a purple flowery print, which is probably our favorite (because purple, duh!)
