The entrance of the bonnet or balaclava is not something that was on most of our bingo cards for 2025. However, this hooded balaclava, bandana, bonnet hybrid of head protection is proving to be a major fashion statement as of late. Irish designer Simone Rocha even had the look in her AW22 runway show a couple of seasons ago.

Style icon Alexa Chung is also partly the reason for this surge in knitted head ware after stepping out in this alternative take on the classic beanie hat.
