Creating a Sparkling Black Hat with Wide Brim ✨
Today I’ll show you how I create a black hat entirely from sparkling fabric (like sequins) in Pocket Styler Studio.
Working on the Crown
🔹 Step 1. Base Color for the Crown
First, I select solid black and apply it to the entire crown — this is the foundation for the sparkling effect.
🔹 Step 2. Print for the Crown
Next, I choose a print that mimics sequins and cover the entire crown with it for a full sparkling look.
🔹 Step 3. Shadows and Highlights for the Crown
Using a dark brush, I add shadows to the shaded areas of the crown.
With a light brush, I create highlights so the crown looks three-dimensional and shiny.
🔹 Step 4. Crown Deformation for Volume
Now I go to the Deformation tab to make the crown look more natural.
I select a brush and adjust its size, softness, and strength.
I brush over the areas that need volume, slightly lifting or deepening them — this creates the effect of fabric curves and sparkling texture.
Working on the Brim
🔹 Step 5. Base Color for the Brim
Next, I move on to the brim and apply the same black color.
🔹 Step 6. Print for the Brim
I apply the sparkling print across the entire brim so it matches the crown.
🔹 Step 7. Shadows and Highlights for the Brim
I add shadows with a dark brush and highlights with a light brush to make the brim look three-dimensional and realistic.
🔹 Step 8. Brim Deformation
In the Deformation tab, I adjust the shape and volume of the brim to make the hat look cohesive and natural.
