Dutch Women's HeadGress and Bodice
Women often possessed two head
dresses, one for Sundays and the 9th

weather a hood was worn stiffened
with naper and having two long rib
bons, provided with golden hooks, to
protect it against the wind.
Above low silk or satInz=b bodice
was worn an deliberately folded ke1i-
chief Of fine lawn or cambria. which
allowed only q little Of the throat to
be seen and which was fastened by
brooch or ribbon. 53
The bodice itself was usually a tight
fitting laced one of white or blue sat
in. It is said that women of the lower
classes frequently only took the trou-
BILE of unlacing this cuirass-like gar
ment once a week. The tighter the
bodice the more elegant its wearer
was considered, and. as a great num-
