Contemporary Elizabethan Hairstyles

Here are a few of the images which caught my eye in relation to contemporary Elizabethan hairstyles. The first one is the hair accessory made out of more hair which reminds of the 'caul' in which they used to wear over the hair. This is a beautiful version as it must have been made so delicately and I like the touch of pearls which have been added into it. It looks very classy and glamorous. It looks like something a bride could possibly wear to a wedding.

The second image I found is very different to the first, and makes much more of a bold statement. That is what I like about it; it stands out and highly reminds me of the Elizabethan look. It looks as though hair pieces have been added in to achieve this look with maybe some padding. The heart shape style gives off the impression of the Elizabethan era instantly and I like that it makes such a statement with the height, colour and plaiting gone through it.

I fell in love with the third image - wow. The whole image really wow's me; the makeup, hairstyle, and costuming. It all works so well together. I really like the weaved hair effect with the pin curls at the front of the hairline. It shows different techniques as well as the hairstyles that would have been worn in that era. There is also a slight heart shape in there too which of course represents the era.
