How the giant straw hat became summer’s must-have accessory – and Bella Hadid and Emily Ratajkowski are loving it

HOLD on to your hats because this summer's must-have accessory is on the slightly oversized side of things.

Literally, you'll have to hold on tight to this fashion blogger-favourite giant straw hat to stop it from falling off your head.

While the humble straw hat has always been a summer staple, this "extra large" creation by French designer Jacquemus kicked off the the enomorous trend that is all over Instagram right now... in all senses.

From fashion bloggers to style conscious celebs, this slightly bonkers yet ever-so-chic sunhat is a total summer 2018 must-have and has graced the wardrobes of everyone from Jennifer Lopez to Bella Hadid.

Measuring at over a metre wide (we weren't kidding when we said it was giant), this straw hat gives a whole new meaning to the term "oversized".

Large enough to effectively double up as a sun umbrella, stylish beach-goers have even been pictured with the hat covering their whole upper body while also sharing the hat's shade between two sun-worshippers.

• Le Grand Chapeau Bomba, £530 from Jacquemus -

Although with an eye-watering designer price tag of £530 for an enormous hat made of straw, at least you're getting  a two-for-the-price-of-one type of deal.

For those happy to splash the cash however, this sun hat is just about as elegant as you can get this season.

Our one-stop designer dupe shop Mango has outdone itself with this super-chic alternative to the overly-hyped hat.

Treading the fine line between ridiculously oversized and  effortlessly cool, this black raffia hat from Mango has got us weak at the knees.
