The Bonnet Helga Black is a beautifully crafted accessory that embodies the elegance and practicality of medieval fashion. Made from 100% cotton, this bonnet is designed to provide comfort while adding an authentic touch to your historical costume. With its half-circle round brimmed hood, it is not only stylish but also functional, making it a must-have for anyone interested in medieval attire.
During the mid-15th century, round hoods like the Bonnet Helga were commonly worn by townswomen, senior servants, and ladies at home. These hoods served a dual purpose: they protected the wearer’s hair from dirt and adverse weather conditions while also signifying social status. In the Middle Ages, a woman’s headgear was a clear indicator of her marital status. Unmarried women were permitted to wear their hair uncovered, while married women were expected to don headgear to avoid being labeled as "loose women."
The Bonnet Helga Black features a length of 46 cm and a width of 60 cm, making it a versatile accessory that fits comfortably on various head sizes. The turn over width is 6 cm, and the turn over length is 54 cm, allowing for a customizable fit. Additionally, the pleat size of 1 cm and the button hole on each side enhance the bonnet's design, ensuring it stays securely in place while you go about your day.
This bonnet is not just for historical reenactments; it can also be a charming addition to themed parties, cosplay events, or even as a unique fashion statement. The Bonnet Helga Black can be paired with various medieval costumes, enhancing the overall look and providing an authentic feel to your attire. Whether you are attending a Renaissance fair or simply want to embrace the medieval aesthetic, this bonnet is an excellent choice.
To maintain the quality and appearance of your Bonnet Helga Black, it is recommended to hand wash it in cold water with mild detergent. Avoid using bleach or harsh chemicals, as these can damage the fabric. After washing, reshape the bonnet and allow it to air dry away from direct sunlight to preserve its color and structure.
Choosing the Bonnet Helga Black means opting for quality, authenticity, and style. Its historical significance and practical design make it a valuable addition to any costume collection. Whether you are a history enthusiast, a costume designer, or simply someone who appreciates unique fashion, this bonnet is sure to impress. With its timeless design and comfortable fit, the Bonnet Helga Black is more than just an accessory; it is a statement piece that reflects a rich cultural heritage.
