Madonna has worn many hats — both literally and figuratively. Arriving yesterday at Newark Liberty International Airport, the music icon appeared in a covertly glamorous look topped off with an iridescent cowboy hat. This marks a return to country strong style for the star who championed the style more than two decades ago in Tom Ford for Gucci at the 1995 MTV Video Music Awards. Here she gave that look a more low-key treatment in shades of blue and black.

Madonna started the look on the right note with a python hat, the ideal covering for an A-lister on the go. A fair-isle knit worn under a tailored coat lent some city-friendly polish with cozy undertones while a ribbed skirt with tights provided warmth and sleekness through layers. Platform brogues grounded the look with an extra inch (or three) of urban practicality.
