Field Style for Her: Fedoras, Feather Pins, and the Scarf Every Season Calls For

Field style isn't seasonal, it's foundational

A good fedora, a well-made scarf, and a feather pin worth pinning aren't just hunting-season pieces. They work at the end of summer, into fall, and long after the season closes, which makes them a smarter buy than most people treat them as. This guide covers three pieces that carry their weight year-round.

The fedora: styling it beyond hunting season

A felt or wool fedora with a leather or feather band reads as considered rather than costume, worn with a linen shirt in late-summer heat or a wool coat once the weather turns. The tan-leather-band styles wear the most neutral and pair with almost anything; the pheasant-feather-band versions lean more directly into field style and suit someone who already owns the rest of the wardrobe.

The feather pin: the detail that finishes the look

A feather pin does for a hat or lapel what a good cufflink does for a cuff, it's a small, considered detail rather than a statement. Our range runs from single pheasant tail pins to pom pom styles set in a handcrafted cartridge casing, all easy to move between a fedora band, a jacket lapel, or a bag strap.

The large silk scarf: why one good scarf does more work than five small ones

A large square silk scarf, roughly 35 inches or more per side, does more with less: it works as a neck scarf, a hair wrap, a bag accent, or draped over the shoulders on a cool evening, all from the same piece. It's the kind of purchase that looks considered rather than accumulated, which is exactly what the Heritage Gift Buyer is usually shopping for.

Clare Haggas on the pre-season sale, while it lasts

Every Clare Haggas silk scarf we carry, including the Heads or Tails, Grouse Misconduct, and It's a Dog's Life designs, is currently part of our pre-season sale at up to 40% off. These are limited-run designs and once a colorway sells out on sale, it's gone, which makes this the moment to buy if one of these has been on a wish list. For the full range of gifting and field-style pieces in one place, our hunting essentials collection carries fedoras, scarves, and feather pins together.
