Monogrammy – Celebrity craze for 2005?
According to UK baseball caps specialists the fashion ‘must-have’ for 2005 may already be starting to emerge thanks in part to some of the biggest name in pop and rap. Early signs seem to suggest that in 2005 fashionistas will be adopting baseball caps with lettered logos from pro sports teams which match their own initials.
Britney Spears may have introduced the monogram concept earlier this year when she wore a Birmingham Barons baseball cap in the controversial video for ‘Every Time’. Britney had fans wondering, why she opted for such a relatively unknown Minor League team, and cap? Is the stylised ‘B’ on the front of the baseball cap for Britney?
Many rap and r'n'b artists wear a baseball cap that’s synonymous with the area or city they come from. Usher is seldom far from his Atlanta Braves caps and scores of New York rappers wear their Yankees caps with pride. However, one of the founding fathers of urban style, Snoop Dogg has gone against convention and has been spotted in a San Diego Padres cap, which just happens to bare the intertwined letters, ‘SD’.
Most recently, rapper-come-preacher-come-rapper-again, Mase, chose a Brewers baseball cap for the cover of his ‘Welcome Back’ album. The Brewer’s, unlike Mase, are from Milwaukee. The Brewer’s cap has a large ‘M’ proudly displayed up front.
Ian Spencer of UK baseball cap specialists, Capitate.co.uk said “It might just be a coincidence, but we are starting to see more of our customers buy caps that have their initials.” He added, “Major League Baseball caps lend themselves well to monogram as, unlike in hockey or basketball, the clubs tend to opt for traditional lettered logos on their merchandising”Who knows?
If a few more big name artists follow suit, the monogram baseball cap could be next summer's Von Dutch.
