Despite what most people believe, the true origin of the panama hat, contrary to the name, is Ecuador; more specifically from Cuenca and Montecristi. There it is known as a jipijapa or toquilla hat, traditionally made with braided straw from leaves of the Jipijapa palm or straw shawl. Curious, right?

It is believed that everything changed when at the beginning of the 20th century, Ecuador decided to import a large number of hats to improve the conditions of the workers during the construction of the Panama Canal – a channel that links the Atlantic with the Pacific -. The US president at the time, Theodore Roosevelt, toured various work points of that channel, also carrying an authentic panama hat. In addition, this moment was portrayed and immortalized in the popular press. This resulted in the common belief that the hat had its origins in Panama.

But when was it introduced strongly into the world of fashion? In the year 1855, Frenchman Philippe Raimondi, decided to display the hat at the Universal Exhibition of Paris. And, as if that were not enough, Napoleon III flaunted it with an air of elegance throughout the fair. The Parisians did not take long to favourably recognize this hat, both for its quality and its elegant touch. As a result, this accessory ended up becoming the fashionable hat within the world of the elite, because it was a high-priced hat.

From that moment to date, it has become one of most used hats in the world of fashion. Trends come and go, but without a doubt, the panama straw hat is a timeless accessory that will never go out of style. It is the perfect accent to add a different touch and complimentary to any street-chic look. So all that being said, who would not want to wear one of them nowadays?
