Le Chaperon à Bavolet

Le Chaperon à Bavolet is a fashionable headdress of the 16th century. To be more precise, this is a piece of headdress – a strip of fabric that lies on top of another headdress. Sometimes the strip goes down in the back, and sometimes it folds (rolled up). In various sources, you can find a description that “le chaperon à bavolet” is a headdress, but if you carefully study the images of the 16th century, you will notice that the base is different. But the main feature is the flat top and black color.
