Our take · Researched, not tested

All-cream straw for the all-white party you said yes to.

An all-white party or a summer bridal shower needs a hat that won't fight the dress code. Solid cream paper braid handles that. The weave is airy, the teardrop crown stands 4 1/2 in, and the 2 3/4 in brim shades your eyes without hiding your face in photos. It comes in S/M and L/XL, and the Velcro sweatband adjusts for anything in between. Imported.

Margo's tip: Put the hat on after sunscreen has dried. Cream straw shows a fingerprint of lotion for the rest of the summer.

Great for

  • All-white parties and bridal showers
  • Photos, since a 2 3/4 in brim keeps your face visible
  • Two sizes, S/M and L/XL, with adjustable fit

Skip it if

  • You need a hat that packs flat: the store doesn't list it as packable
  • You want a stated UPF rating: this listing doesn't give one
  • You want a cold-weather hat: look at felt

Questions

Which size of the St Lucia should I get?
It comes in S/M and L/XL. S/M fits heads 22 1/8 to 22 3/4 in on American Hat Makers' chart. L/XL fits heads 22 7/8 to 23 5/8 in on American Hat Makers' chart. Between sizes, size up and use an insert.
Is the St Lucia UPF rated?
The listing doesn't state a UPF rating, so don't assume one. Shade depends on the brim and how tight the weave is. Hold it up to a bright light: if light shows through, so does UV.
Does it pack flat?
The store doesn't list it as packable, so don't fold it. Folding straw cracks the weave. Wear it when you travel, or set it crown down in the overhead bin.
How do you clean the St Lucia?
Brush off dust with a soft brush and dab marks with a barely damp cloth. American Hat Makers suggests cornstarch for sweat or grease spots, brushed off after it sits. Never soak straw, and let it dry on its crown.
Can you return it?
Per American Hat Makers, as stated on their site Nov 6, 2026, it offers 90-day easy returns. Policies change, so confirm on the store's page before you order.

No. American Hat Makers sells it. The store button opens their product page, and we earn a commission if you buy, at no cost to you.
