This stunning lithograph print from 1880 showcases the intricate and ornate women's headdress of the late nineteenth century. The illustration, taken from "Historical Evolution of Woman's Head Wear" published in 1895, captures the essence of fashion and opulence during this time period. The headdress is adorned with feathers, likely ostrich plumes, which were a popular decorative element in women's attire at the time. The luxurious velvet ribbon adds an extra touch of elegance to the already elaborate design. This headdress symbolizes wealth and status, as only those who could afford such extravagant accessories would have been able to wear it. Women in the nineteenth century used fashion as a way to express themselves and showcase their social standing.

The black-and-white lithograph brings out every detail of this exquisite piece, allowing us to appreciate the craftsmanship that went into creating such a beautiful accessory. It serves as a reminder of the rich history behind women's fashion and how it has evolved over time. Overall, this print is not just a depiction of a women's headdress from 1880; it is a window into the past that allows us to glimpse into the world of high society fashion in the late nineteenth century.
