I have attempted this myself. My borrowed helmets were from a company called Comtronics. These helmets are popular with the self-built aviation persons. Unfortunately they proved too bulky for use in the Ercoupe plane. Even with the side windows down the helmets would occasionally hit on the window frames around the sides. This was most unfortunate because they were well made and I did not realize they were even on my head by the time I got to the runup area. After looking at some motorcycle helmets I concluded that no helmet worth having would fit on my head in the cockpit of the Ercoupe. If there was more room then I would probably wear one. If one is concerned with style then it is necessary to wear complete flying attire as the helmet just doesn't look right when you are wearing short pants or tea shirt. My instructor forbid such clothing anyway.
