A baseball cap is 2025's must-wear accessory - here are the ones we're shopping
Once reserved for dads in the park or off-duty celebs dodging paps, the humble baseball cap is now a mainstay of the fashion set's wardrobe. The accessory is no longer a sun-shielding afterthought but a serious sartorial statement, with brands from Hermès to Celine showing off their own versions of the luxe accessory on runways at fashion week.
Why the sudden resurgence? Likely because it's become cool to look casual. Heels have been replaced with Adidas Sambas; tailored trousers with wide-leg jeans; summer dresses with tummy-baring co-ords. Throwing on a baseball cap is yet another way to downplay your outfit's formality.
Don't just take our word for it. Kendall Jenner 's been snapped more times with her New York Yankees baseball cap than without it this summer. Jennifer Lawrence nailed off-duty mum chic with her In the Mood for Love cap in May, before showing off an iconic Twilight Saga: Breaking Dawn – Part 1 style the week after. General consensus seems to be that the sillier a slogan, the better.
Let be honest: it's also the ultimate lazy-girl hack. Bad hair day? Cap. Outfit feeling a bit mumsy? Cap. Suddenly, you look cooler, sharper and like you know what you're doing – even if you're on day-five hair that's coated in three layers of dry shampoo.
Below, we've compiled a list of the hottest styles of baseball cap to shop for the end of summer, from iconic sports teams to pretty patterned ones. The best bit of all? When the good old British rain does turn up, it's a foolproof way to keep your hair dry. If that's not enough to convince you, nothing is.
Classic caps
Want a laidback style you can wear with everything? Opt for a versatile colour (you'll get most use out of white, cream, black or red caps) and durable materials like cotton. Always try on before buying – we've fallen foul to too many caps with too-high a crown that makes it look as though we have a pointy head. Not cute.

Slogan caps
The slogan tees cooler little sister, slogan caps work so well because people have to stare really hard to tell what they say. Hence the cap draws attention away from your hair/face/outfit and to your clever and silly personality. Everyone knows the more ridiculous the slogan, the more stylish the wearer.

Sports caps
The key to a good sports cap is choosing an iconic team that's been around for ages rather than a buzzy team. That way you know it'll last for years (unless you're really cursed). Ask Kendall Jenner and her New York Yankees hat. And don't worry – no actual sports knowledge is required.

Patterned caps
Want the attention-grabbing element of a slogan cap without the out-there saying? A patterned cap does the same job, so long as you stick to a monochromatic outfit to avoid clashing patterns or colours. We love a basic stripe, but Ganni's leopard print one may well turn our head this autumn...

The 1% Club wipes out a whopping 25 players with this seemingly simple question - but can YOU get it right?
The 1% Club players were tripped up by a seemingly simple question that wiped out a whopping 25 contestants. A vintage episode of the ITV quiz show, hosted by Lee Mack, saw 100 contestants attempt to win a hefty cash prize. The programme's questions were put to the public, with the percentage who got it right determining the difficulty of each round. As the name implies, the final question is the one that just 1 per cent of the public managed to figure out. This time, it was a 60 per cent question that caught people out - causing the crowd to gasp in shock at the number of eliminated players. An image popped up onto the big screen, depicting a brick wall with golden bricks, with some of the bricks in the middle of the wall missing. The question asked: 'How many bricks are missing from this wall?' Have a go and see if you can correctly answer the easy puzzle that fooled so many. Players could compare the sizes of the rows of empty spaces to the sizes of the visible bricks to get the correct answer. The correct answer was 12, and a shocking 25 people answered incorrectly, causing them to be wiped out of the game and leaving 70 optimistic players remaining. The live studio audience gasped in shock, and host Lee joined in when the number of wrong answers emerged. It comes after The 1% Club's return date was confirmed, with ITV announcing a huge shake-up to its format that 'will leave the nation hooked'. The quiz show started in April, 2022, and has since proven hugely successful, winning two National Television Awards. The fourth series of the show, which is normally shown on Saturday nights, ended in May - but ITV has now announced it will be back in autumn, in a brand new form. Players could compare the sizes of the rows of empty spaces to the sizes of the visible bricks to get the correct answer, which was 12 Instead of airing just one night per week, the programme will be transformed to create a five-day special event renamed The 1% Club Rollover. The basic gameplay will remain the same - but if the prize pot is not won on one episode, it will roll over to the next. It will raise the stakes massively as if all pots rolled over for all five days, it means an astonishing £500,000 could be up for grabs by the final episode of the week. Not only this, anyone who gets as far as the final one per cent quiz question will automatically win the right to come back for the next episode of the week to play again. It means if someone wins big during one show, they could still potentially get more on the next episode - doubling, tripling or even quadrupling their winnings. The new five-day special version of The 1% Club recalls the structure of other popular newer quiz shows, like Richard Osman's House Of Games. It capitalises on the existing smash success of the programme, which is the biggest original quiz show in more than a decade. The show regularly sees six million viewers tune in every episode - and across its three-year run so far, it has been streamed more than 40 million times. The 1% Club has won two Broadcast Awards and a Rose d'Or, all for Best Entertainment Show. It was also awarded a Television and Radio Industries Club (TRIC) Award for Best Game Show. It has also received two BAFTA nominations, for Best Entertainment Show and for Best Entertainment Performance by Lee Mack. Sue Murphy, ITV's head of factual entertainment, said: 'The 1% Club Rollover as event TV is a perfect fit. 'The series continues to go from strength to strength and has become a must watch in homes across the country on Saturday nights. 'This special Rollover week will really be a primetime event that will have the nation hooked. Five nights of The 1% Club and Lee Mack… What's not to like?'

Johnny Depp, 62, doesn't look like this anymore as he embraces a grungy rock star image for surprise appearance
Johnny Depp used to have a movie star look with highlighted hair and a groomed goatee. The 62-year-old actor would wear tailored suits and designer sunglasses as he smiled while on the red carpet. But over the weekend, the Hollywood veteran went full rock star with a grungy appearance while on stage in London. Depp was rocking out with Alice Cooper at the O2 Arena to honor the late Ozzy Osbourne in a special tribute on Friday night. Ozzy died on Tuesday at the age of 76 just weeks after he took to the stage for his final show with Black Sabbath, with his family confirming the devastating news. The icon and Cooper, 77, paid tribute to Ozzy as they performed Black Sabbath's Paranoid. Depp made a surprise appearance for the touching tribute, as he played his guitar. Cooper screamed at the crowd 'Let's hear it for Ozzy!', before singing some of his well-known tunes. In June Depp said he still longs for the life he once shared with his former partner Vanessa Paradis and their children in the south of France. The actor was together with the actress, singer and model for 14 years and they have two children – Lily-Rose Depp, 26, and Jack Depp, 23 – and Johnny has now admitted bringing up his kids was the happiest time of his life. He told the Sunday Times as he reflected on his favorite times from the past: 'My kids growing up in the south of France in their youth? I was Papa. I cannot tell you how much I loved being Papa. 'Truly, the first time I felt I had a home was the place in the south of France where Vanessa and I raised the kiddies. That's the only place that ever felt like home.' The Pirates of the Caribbean star reflected on his years with Vanessa, now 51, during an interview where he spoke candidly about fame, family and his current isolated lifestyle. Johnny now resides in a rented property in London, where he says he avoids going out in public for fear of being recognized. He admitted that his current lifestyle has left him feeling cut off. 'I don't get out much,' he said, adding: 'I'm stuck with my thoughts; just thinking, writing or watching weird s*** on YouTube. It can't be healthy.' Asked if he has ever tried disguising himself to avoid attention, he said: 'I've tried hats or I can grow a beard. But there is never any way to hide, and I just feel uncomfortable causing this weird form of attention I do, because I'm really shy.' He added: 'Fame is the last thing I ever chased. If you look at the 9,000 years that I've been doing this s***, it's pretty clear that I wasn't ever thinking how I could be more famous, make a hit or please the press. –Fame is an occupational hazard – but if I spout off about how upset I am, people will say, 'Sweetheart, take a job pulling trash bags'.' Johnny also said that when invited out by friends, he often declines. 'To this day I just rarely go out,' he said. 'If friends invite me out for a Mexican, I say, 'Dude, that's sweet of you but I will ruin your night.' My presence will bring attention and, Jesus, I have had almost 40 years of fame but I'm still not used to it. And I'm glad I'm not.' Speaking about his daughter Lily-Rose's decision to enter the same industry, Johnny said he had tried to warn her of the consequences of fame. He added: 'Sometimes kids say to me, "I want to be an actor, what's your advice?" 'And I say, "Don't be!" I know what's coming for them. I was chucked on that road and the only advice that I can give is, "Don't allow anyone to make you something you are not."
