Regency Era Accessories: The Chapeau
Hats were so important to a Regency woman's wardrobe that they are the only accessory that had its own fashion plates.
Just to note that I chose to use the French names for the various hats and fabrics. The term "poke bonnet" just doesn't have the same ring! Besides, I love everything French!
Left: An assortment of chapeaux de crépe and chapeaux de gros de Naples [fig. 3] • (Gros de Naples is a thick silk fabric. Here, it is inset with tulle and tied at the crown with a scarf.)
[fig. 2] "Chapeau de Crèpe” is made of a lighter-weight silk. The crown is less structured, due to the less sturdy fabric, but uses more flowers to fill in the shape. The chin ribbon is trimmed in lace and falls from the crown in a unique way. – via Regency World
Right: Various chapeaux and lace bonnets. (More about lace bonnets in another post)
