Smoking caps, also known as lounging caps, were Victorian headwear worn by men while smoking to stop their hair from smelling of tobacco smoke. They were soft caps, shaped like a squat cylinder or close fitting like a knit cap, and usually heavily embroidered with a tassel on top. They were originally worn for warmth, but continued with their new use after improvements in Victorian heating. They were popular in the period 1840-1880, and usually used by gentlemen in the privacy of their homes. The need for smoking caps, and smoking wear generally, arose from the social more of not smoking in front of women, and not smelling of smoke when one returned to their presence.

  • Smoking caps, also known as lounging caps, were Victorian headwear worn by men while smoking to stop their hair from smelling of tobacco smoke. They were soft caps, shaped like a squat cylinder or close fitting like a knit cap, and usually heavily embroidered with a tassel on top. They were originally worn for warmth, but continued with their new use after improvements in Victorian heating. They were popular in the period 1840-1880, and usually used by gentlemen in the privacy of their homes. The need for smoking caps, and smoking wear generally, arose from the social more of not smoking in front of women, and not smelling of smoke when one returned to their presence. They were often a gift from women, who made them themselves to give to male partners. They were often worn with a smoking jacket, but while the jacket was more or less de rigueur, the cap was optional. Neither was worn by everyone, as smoking was not as popular as it became in the twentieth century, although they could also be worn as part of a man's loungewear outfit with no connection to smoking. The decoration of the cap was often very ornate and colourful. Designs were Oriental influenced, especially designs from the Near and Middle East, a common Victorian influence in many other areas.

  • Il berretto da fumo talvolta noto anche come berretto del pensatore o berretto alla Garibaldi è un particolare tipo di berretto utilizzato un tempo dagli uomini (in particolare nel XIX secolo) per fumare.

Furono molto popolari nell'Inghilterra dell'Ottocento ed erano utilizzati spesso dai gentiluomini nella privacy delle loro abitazioni. Ad esso si abbinava sovente una giacca da fumo. Questa particolare tipologia di cappello deriva probabilmente da copricapi molto simili utilizzati in Cina, Arabia e Turchia, dal momento che anche in questi contesti vi sono esempi molto simili (ad esempio la shashia tunisina, il fez o il kufi). In Italia il copricapo divenne particolarmente famoso nel corso dell'Ottocento perché divenne un tratto distintivo di Giuseppe Garibaldi che lo amava particolarmente, abbinato al suo poncho, e di cui disponeva di una vasta collezione.
