The latest Connoisseur headwear line is inspired by Hollywood's famous rugs. It references classics like The Shining and Twin Peaks when making the warm beanies, furthering the fashion offshoots that come of on-screen productions.
This England-based brand looks to the work of directors like Stanley Kubrick when putting together its pieces. The 'Weir Overlook Special Edition' hat follows up on Kubrick-endorsed carpets as they are found in shots of the Overlook Hotel.
The one size fits all Connoisseur products are sold in a limited edition set. Their unusual one-hat-per-customer policy is certainly different from most retailers and e-commerce sites which often seek to push the greatest amount of merchandise upon customers. The label has instead opted for an exclusive approach.
