✨ How to Add a Brim to a Hat Without Restarting the Project ✨
(a trick for working with the “Hats” tab)
In Pocket Styler Studio you can work with hats in two different ways:
Through the “Hats” tab — here you can only create simple shapes from a single layer (crown, turban, etc.);
Through the “Brimmed hat” tab — here you can build more complex hats that include both a crown and a brim.
But what if you’ve made a simple hat in the Hats tab, you really like how it looks, and now you want to add a brim?
🔹 Step 1. Use Details
Open your hat project.
Go to the Details tab and pick any shape you like.
Use it to create the brim in the way you prefer — without being limited by preset templates.
🔹 Step 2. Add the Back View
Switch to the back layer of the hat.
Add another shape (through Details) and use it to form the back view of the brim.
🔹 Step 3. Decoration
Now you can treat the brim like any other element:
add stripes, decorative details, shadows, or highlights.
✨ Result:
This way, you can “upgrade” a simple hat into a more complex one without restarting the project.
It’s especially useful when you already have a crown you love and don’t want to rebuild it from scratch.
💡 Extra tip: Brims created manually with Details give you much more freedom. You can make them uneven, asymmetrical, or add unusual curves — things that the standard “Hats with Brims” tab doesn’t allow. It’s a great way to make your design stand out!
