Sicilian coppola in Palermo

The coppola is a men’s cap with a short brim, traditionally made of wool, tweed, or heavy cotton. It has a soft, slightly flat shape, with stitching that shapes the crown and a small rigid brim at the front. In Sicily it was for decades part of everyday men’s clothing, especially among workers, farmers, and artisans. Today it can be found in various fabrics and colors, from the most classic versions to contemporary reinterpretations produced by local tailoring workshops and artisan shops.
