The Little Nell partnered with Los Angeles-based milliner to the stars, Nick Fouquet, to create a limited-edition design known as The Nell Hat. “The inspiration for this hat comes from the roughness of the area of Aspen and the chicness of the hotel,” Fouquet says.

Available exclusively at the boutique at The Little Nell, the whiskey-colored wide-brim hat features a tan leather band with accent-color wrapping and a brass roller buckle. The logos of both brands are embossed on the band and playfully juxtaposed on the hat’s liner. “The cobalt blue and whiskey colors combine to create a unique piece to wear both in the mountains and the city,” Fouquet says.

Look for the next iteration of a Nick Fouquet hat designed for The Little Nell this summer, when Fouquet will debut a straw hat available exclusively at the boutique at The Little Nell.
