🌺 Whimsical & Bold – Meet Laila

Laila is a radiant handmade Wayuu Hat crafted with care from durable Iraca palm fibers by Wayuu artisans. Its vibrant pink and green diagonal weave dances against a natural straw base, accented with bold black patterns and crowned with fluffy pompoms in turquoise blue, navy, green, and coral.

🌞 Endless Style Options

Whether you're off to a tropical getaway, open-air market, or summer picnic:

  • Lower the brim for sun-smart fashion

  • Tilt it slightly for a carefree vibe

  • Keep it upright for a crisp, stylish silhouette

🧶 Rich in Symbolism

The multicolor pompoms are rooted in Wayuu culture and tradition, where they signify joy, prosperity, and community pride. Laila’s palette and craftsmanship tell a story as vibrant as its look.

  • Approximate head opening: 21 inches

  • Each hat is unique—size and color patterns may slightly vary

💛 Your Purchase Gives Back

Each Laila sold contributes $50 to feed five Wayuu children, thanks to Wuitusu’s partnership with the Wayuu Taya Foundation. This hat isn’t just stunning—it’s meaningful.


🧶 Artisan Craftsmanship & Meaning

Each bohemian straw hat requires ~8 hours of hand weaving and represents generations of matriarchal Wayuu tradition. The large pompoms aren't just decoration — they’re symbols of prosperity. And if you're into customizing? You can even add extra pompoms here to enhance or change the look.

Most Gorgeous & Fabulous Hat Ever

I saw this hat on Instagram and just had to have one. Although picking out just one was challenging, I finally committed to a colorful yellow, blue, and black combo. The hat arrived very quickly, and I was thrilled to be able to wear it before summer's end. It was a bit tight on my head, but I followed the video instructions, and it was super easy to get the perfect fit and shape for my tastes. Everywhere I go, I get compliments, and I have already decided that I am going to order a few more because each hat is unique and more beautiful than the last. RAVE reviews! I'm almost reluctant to tell anyone where I purchased the hat, but I'm spreading the word far and wide because the proceeds benefit the talented weavers and artisans.
