chapeau
Parisian head covering
Chapeau is French for hat, borrowed into English for stylish or formal headwear.
The word appears in fashion contexts and theatrical usage, carrying a touch of elegance or whimsy that plain "hat" lacks: She adjusted her chapeau before entering the ballroom.
In card games, particularly poker, chapeau sometimes refers to a tip or gratuity given to the dealer.
