Editorial Reviews
Book Description
More than 400 of the author's own drawings provide an authentic record of over 1,300 years of changing fashions in women's hairstyles and headwear in England. Finely detailed images--rendered from vintage sources--depict everything from wimples and crespines worn in Anglo-Saxon times, Tudor hoods and caps, and elaborate Georgian hats and hairstyles, to early Victorian bonnets and pillboxes of the mid-twentieth century. Detailed notes on styles, materials used, and methods of manufacture are included, as is a brief glossary.
