Hats and Bonnets - Edition en langue anglaise (Broché)

The ladies' hats, bonnets and caps in this book have been selected from the magnificent Snowshill Collection of costume and accessories created by Charles Paget Wade. Dating from the early 1700s to the beginning of the 20th century, they represent a comprehensive journey through the styles of a period that saw major radical and social changes such as the French Revolution and the industrial revolution, and the emancipation of women.
From bergères to boaters, they serve not only as a fashion statement, but also a gauge for the values of society.
