EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases a lady's headdress from the 13th century, specifically modified during the early reign of Edward I. The headdress belonged to a well-to-do woman and is an exquisite display of medieval fashion and style. The image, taken from "British Costume during 19 Centuries" by Mrs Charles H Ashdown in 1910, beautifully captures the intricate details of this headpiece. The headdress features a jewelled band that elegantly adorns the woman's head, adding a touch of opulence to her ensemble. A wimple drapes gracefully around her neck and shoulders, enhancing her regal appearance. Additionally, a peplum can be seen on her attire, indicating the modifications made during this era. The photograph highlights not only the craftsmanship involved in creating such elaborate headgear but also provides insight into women's fashion trends in medieval England. It serves as a reminder of how clothing and accessories were used to signify social status and wealth during that time. Emily Jessie Ashdown has skillfully captured this historical artifact with precision and attention to detail. Her work allows us to appreciate the beauty of this lady's headdress while providing valuable insights into English costume history.
