Beret Fever: John Travolta's Style Influence The beret has been a staple in French fashion for centuries, but its resurgence in popularity can be attributed to one man: John Travolta.
His iconic character in Saturday Night Fever (1977) popularized the beret as a fashion staple, and now it's a must have accessory for fashion enthusiasts worldwide.
The Origins of the Beret in Pop Culture The beret has a long history associated with artists, intellectuals, and counterculture movements. In the early 20th century, it was a symbol of revolution and nonconformity.
