Bicorn
The bicorn - the hat with two horns
From the Latin bicornis, the bicorn simply means a hat with two horns.
Derived from the three-horn hat, it was originally designed to be an equestrian headgear.
Worn in the military field, the bicorn quickly became the headgear of the 18th century. Made of wool felt, its appearance and the way it is worn have evolved over the years and with fashion trends
Nowadays, the bicorne is still associated with the famous Napoleon hat during the Empire, but it is also found at the French Academy or during major events.
