You simply need to set a default folder-hook, since hooks are "sticky";
the last one that applies is used.
Something like

  folder-hook . 'set hdr_format="..."'

(*before any other folder-hooks or this will be all you get :-)

 I've set up a folder hook in my .muttrc file for my ~/Maildir/Sent-Items folder
 
 The folder hook is:

One solution is the following:

folder-hook .  'set hdr_format="%4C %Z %{%b %d} %-15.15F (%4l) %s"'
folder-hook Sent-Items 'set hdr_format="%4C %Z %{%m %d} %-15.15t (%4c) %s"'

This will set the default format whenever you change folders, then set
your send-items format if the folder is Sent-Items.  I'm not sure about
the default format.  It wasn't in the manual I have, and querying it
from the Mutt command line returned "index_format" instead of
"hdr_format":

index_format="%4C %Z %{%b %d} %-15.15F (%4l) %s"
