Women's caps from LOEVENICH and FRAAS – stylish, functional, versatile
A cap is more than a sporting accessory. It protects against sun and wind, completes a casual look and is as effortless as almost any other item of clothing. The range on this page brings together models primarily from LOEVENICH – the FRAAS sub-brand specializing exclusively in women's headwear – as well as selected caps from the FRAAS collection. Together, both brands offer a selection ranging from the classic baseball cap to the elegant peaked cap.
The baseball cap for women: a timeless classic
The baseball cap is probably the best-known cap style – and for good reason. It fits comfortably, can be combined with almost any outfit and reliably protects eyes and face from direct sunlight. What began as a sporting accessory is now a firm fixture in everyday fashion.
At LOEVENICH, the classic baseball cap is taken further: with high-quality materials, thoughtful details and silhouettes that meet even the most discerning style requirements. Adjustable fastenings ensure an individual fit – whether worn with loose hair, a ponytail or a bun. Anyone looking for a headwear style in a larger fit will find what they need in the XXL hats and caps category.
The baseball cap suits many occasions: city strolls, trips out into nature, travel or sporting activities. Anyone looking for a style that works effortlessly and still looks great will find it here.
Women's cap styles: what's available?
Alongside the classic baseball cap, the range includes further cap styles that differ in fit, material and occasion:
- Baseball cap: The classic with a structured peak and flat crown. Sporty, casual and timeless.
- Peaked cap: A slightly softer, rounder shape than the classic baseball cap – with a subtly more feminine cut. Easy to combine with urban and elegant outfits.
- Tennis cap: With an all-around brim – ideal for sport and leisure when sun protection from all sides is needed.
- Visor cap: The brimless variant – only the peak remains, leaving the top of the head exposed. Popular for sport and on hot summer days.
- Bucket hat: Technically a hat, but stylistically closely related to the cap world. Relaxed, protective and very on-trend.
- Straw cap: The cap version of the sun hat. Light, summery and with a natural look.
- Dad cap: Unstructured, soft and with a gently curved peak – the relaxed counterpart to the classic baseball cap.
Elegant peaked caps as stylish sun protection
Sun protection and style are not mutually exclusive – quite the opposite. A well-chosen peaked cap or baseball cap serves a genuine protective function in summer: the peak keeps direct sunlight away from eyes and face and reduces glare in bright light. This is not only useful for sport, but also during long days in the city, traveling or on walks.
LOEVENICH uses lightweight, breathable materials such as cotton and paper straw for its summer styles, keeping the head at a comfortable temperature even in the heat. Many styles also feature ventilation eyelets for additional airflow. Anyone looking for even more sun protection in summer will find further options in the sun hats for women category or among the summer hats.
Anyone seeking comprehensive UV protection should look for styles with a stated UV protection rating – this information can be found on the individual product pages.
Materials at a glance: what makes a good women's cap?
The material largely determines how a cap feels in everyday wear and which season it is best suited to:
- Cotton: Breathable, skin-friendly and easy to care for – the all-rounder for spring, summer and mild fall days. Cotton caps are washable and keep their shape even with frequent wear.
- Paper straw: A sustainable alternative to classic straw. Lightweight, shape-retaining and with a natural look that is perfect for summer. LOEVENICH deliberately uses this material as an eco-friendly option – more sustainable accessories can be found in the sustainable women's fashion category.
- Straw: The classic summer material – light, airy and with an unmistakable look that evokes a vacation feeling. Straw caps are particularly well suited to relaxed days outdoors.
- Synthetic fiber / polyester: Robust, shape-retaining and often particularly easy to care for. Commonly found in trucker caps or sporty styles.
How to style a women's cap
A cap can be styled in a surprisingly versatile way – with a few basic principles in mind:
For a sporty outfit – leggings, sneakers, light jacket – a classic baseball cap or tennis cap in a neutral color (black, navy, white) works best. It completes the look without drawing too much attention to itself.
For a casual urban look – jeans, an oversized shirt or blazer – a dad cap or peaked cap in an earthy tone or with a subtle print works well. The soft silhouette of the dad cap feels less sporty than a classic baseball cap. Those looking to complete the look with further accessories will find suitable additions among the festival accessories.
When it comes to color and pattern: neutral caps (black, beige, olive, white) work as all-rounders. Patterned or colorful styles make a deliberate statement – best paired with an otherwise understated outfit.
LOEVENICH caps: quality and design from a single source
LOEVENICH was launched in 2024 as an independent women's headwear brand under the FRAAS umbrella. The range is aimed at women who refuse to compromise on functionality or style when it comes to headwear. All styles are developed to the quality standards that FRAAS has been known for since 1880 – careful material selection, well-considered fits and an aesthetic that picks up on trends without following them blindly.
Selected caps from the FRAAS range complement the offering alongside the LOEVENICH styles – for those who appreciate the familiar FRAAS aesthetic in headwear too.
FAQs about caps for women
What types of women's caps are available from LOEVENICH and FRAAS?
The range includes classic baseball caps, peaked caps, tennis caps, visor caps, dad caps and summery straw caps made from paper straw or straw. The styles differ in material, fit and occasion – from sporty to elegant.
How do I care for my cap?
This depends on the material. Cotton caps can generally be machine washed at 30°C – ideally in a laundry bag to help them keep their shape. Straw and paper straw caps should not be washed; simply wipe with a slightly damp cloth and leave to air dry. Detailed care instructions can be found on the label of each product.
Are the caps adjustable?
Many styles come with an adjustable fastening – for example a velcro closure, snap fastening or buckle – so the fit can be tailored individually. Anyone needing a particularly generous fit will find the right options in the XXL hats and caps category.
Does a cap really protect against the sun?
The peak of a cap keeps direct sunlight away from eyes and face – particularly useful in bright light or during long hours outdoors. For comprehensive UV protection, sunscreen should be applied as well. Styles with a stated UV protection rating offer an additional layer of protection. Further options with even greater sun protection can be found among the sun hats for women.
Can I wear a cap in fall or winter too?
Yes, particularly cotton and synthetic styles are also suitable for the cooler seasons. For very cold days, a warmer headwear option is recommended – take a look at the beanie, knitted hat or the full hats collection.
How do I style a women's cap with confidence?
Neutral colors such as black, beige or navy work as all-rounders. Patterned or colorful styles make a deliberate statement. The silhouette of the cap should suit the outfit: structured baseball caps look sportier, soft dad caps more relaxed and peaked caps slightly more elegant.
