A year after R. Turner Wilcox received rave reviews for her ultimate fashion reference, The Mode in Costume, she decided to zero in on one chic category to give it the close-up it deserved. The result is this extraordinary handbook that covers the worldwide evolution of almost five thousand years of hats, hairstyles, and headdress for both sexes. Since ancient times, men and women have used hats and headgear for everything from adornment and protection to establishing their rank in society. With hundreds of illustrations and fascinating text, this comprehensive survey extends from 3000 B.C. to mid-twentieth century.
The showcase depicts an astonishing range of women's styles -- Egyptian headdresses, Spanish mantillas, French straw sailor hats, buckle-trimmed tam-o-shanters, wedding veils, bonnets, snoods, and jeweled crowns. Men's headwear includes feather-trimmed turbans, soldiers' helmets, cowboy hats and top hats, derbies and boaters, berets, sombreros, and Homburgs. Hairstyles run the gamut as well: ringlets, topknots, and spit curls, ponytails, pageboys, and poodle cuts, as well as pompadours, mutton chops, and crew cuts. With delightful details on jewelry, cosmetics, and beauty treatments, this is a unique reference that fashion designers, stylists, and historians will treasure.

Junk
Just pay for the better ones, these are cheap junk. They can’t even be torn off without falling apart.

Nice bed
Color: Blue, Size: Large (Pack of 1)
Good quality dog bed. My pittie loves to burrow himself under blankets so I figured we would give this a try. He hasn’t figured it out yet but it’s his new favorite spot to take a nap when he’s not on our lap. Love the color and seems to be nicely made. I do wish it came in a bigger size but it’s still big enough for him.

Nice quality. My dog loves laying on this bed but hasn’t yet figured out getting inside. I cover him after he lays and he seems to enjoy it

Cozy Bed, Just Needs Fluffing
Color: Blue, Size: Large (Pack of 1)
Our dog took to this bed pretty quickly and seems to like curling up under the cave cover. It’s soft, roomy, and gives that little tucked-in feeling a lot of pets seem to love. The cover doesn’t always stay perfectly shaped, so I have to fluff it back up now and then. Other than that, it looks nice in the corner and seems comfortable enough for daily naps. Solid bed overall, especially for the price.
