The Emma Bonnet is made of 100% cotton with a hemmed visor sewn in at the top, and strings at the base of the hood. It’s the perfect addition for an authentic medieval costume.
The hood was an almost indispensable piece of clothing; it not only protected the wearer's hair from dirt and weather during work but also signified a woman's status. In the Middle Ages, only unmarried women were allowed to wear their hair uncovered. A married woman without headgear was considered a ""loose woman."" Hoods in many colors and shapes are an integral part of any costume.
