Early pyramidal headdress, late 15th-early 16th century, (1910). The pyramidal headdress developed from the broad band of the steeple headdress. It rested on the forehead and fell on either side of the face. Subsequently this developed into a simple hood. Here the lady wears a piece of reticulated wire-work enclosing the hair, while over it the headdress bears a resemblance to the earlier capuchon, with the front thrown back to show the inner lining. One of the men wears large and flamboyant feathers in his hat. Illustration from British Costume during 19 Centuries by Mrs Charles H Ashdown, (London, 1910).
