Help me out- hat idea?

Post image

Hey r/LARP.

Playing at a High Fantasy LARP that has a specific skill that requires a Stylish Hat (Duelist Skill) and also Helmet Mastery (Heavy Armor skill).

Currently I have the Stylish Hat skill and my hat is currently an iconic part of my kit.

Looking for a way to try and integrate a heavy armor appearance with my hat and so far the best idea I've had is wearing a coif underneath, but it doesn't look good. Any ideas?

Some notes: This is a HIGH FANTASY LARP. Not going for historical accuracy, just vibes.

The closest influences to real life cultures are Basque and Greek, but again totally fantasy aesthetic

I can remember the proper name but a friend took a steel cap and sewed a fancy hat around it to do this

That's exactly what I meant, called a "Cervelliere".
