The Ushanka; a Russian hat worn by her military and natives to keep one's face and head warm during the burtal Arctic winters. Yet it's also becoming a rage in the fashion industry! This odd looking hat has been gracing the runways and covers of reputable designers and magazines as the 'It' item of the year. But Russians have been styling up this bad boy since Ivan the terrible!
So what's so spectacular about this hat? This Russian crazy? Easy; it's DIFFERENT! With the approach of 2010, the trend of fashion mags and sites are aiming towards making your own fashion mark in the new milenia, inspired by trend setters like Lady Gaga and Lappo Elkann of FIAT. It's true, this hat may not be for some, but pair it with a cool pair of aviators and a turtleneck and you'll make this hat melt even the coldest of winters.
