EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases a lady's headdress from the 14th century, captured in 1910 by Emily Jessie Ashdown. The fashion depicted here hails from the reign of Richard II, which spanned from 1377 to 1399. The headdress itself is a marvel to behold, featuring intricate reticulated designs adorned with goldsmiths' work and jewels. The lady also dons an ermine-lined cloak made of luxurious green velvet, embellished with a stunning gold pattern. A pendant hangs gracefully from the gold and jeweled morse. The lady further enhances her ensemble with a red velvet fur-edged super cote-hardi layered over a rich baudekyn cote-hardi. This illustration comes from "British Costume during 19 Centuries" by Mrs Charles H Ashdown, published in London in 1910. Every detail in this image exudes opulence and elegance, transporting us back to medieval England. From the ornate fabric choices to the exquisite jewelry and headgear, it is clear that no expense was spared when it came to fashion during this period. Emily Jessie Ashdown's skillful capture allows us to appreciate not only the craftsmanship but also the cultural significance of clothing during this era.
