This elegant costume is very distinctive with its very beautiful, large, stiffly starched hat. The "kissers" are large gold squares worn at the temples. The detail of the hat in olden days signified whether the person was of the Protestant or Catholic faith.

Nelly, This poor girl has gone blue in the face from trying to believe all that hocus pocus that the priests will tell you. It's hard for a girl. A boy can just tell them to bugger off. Lovely work as usual.george query 14 Nov 2011
