Hair, There, Everywhere: Hair Accessories Then and Now
A popular reality show quips, "In fashion, one day you're in, the next day you're out." Indeed, fashion can be very tricky. Trends shift quickly and without warning. And we're not just talking about clothes and shoes here. Shifting trends happen just as much among accessories. Since most (if not all) women see their hair as their crowning glory, the shifts are even more apparent among hair accessories.
Women have been styling their hair for ages. In fact, some hair accessories even date all the way back to early Greek, Roman and Egyptian times. Some anthropologists believe that early cave dwellers used sticks, thorns, or bones on their hair as sort of "crude" hair clips.
Fast forward to today, where there are countless styles of hair accessories in various sizes and in a myriad of colors. Some hair accessories have stood the test of time, while some have faded into oblivion. Yet, somewhere along the way you will inevitably find old styles making comebacks. And this year, one the biggest comebacks are ultra feminine hair bows.
But first, a little look back at hair accessory history. Hair bows became popular during Queen Victoria's reign from 1837 to 1901, which we know as the Victorian Era. But it was during the Edwardian Era that hair bows began making their mark on fashion. This was during King Edward VII's reign from 1901 to 1910.
The Victorian Era was known for its very plain, very simple, very subdued aesthetics. During those times, women seldom wore hair bows. In the rare times that they did, these were usually black or another modest color and most of them were small in size. All of these changed in the Edwardian Era, which was known to be more fanciful and decorative. Women started experimenting, wearing hair bows of different sizes and colors. This was especially apparent among upper-class women, who indulged in luxurious hair bows for themselves and also bought them as baby gifts for their little girls. Since then, hair bows have remained a popular hair accessory throughout the 20th Century.
Too cute to be true, hair bows have come back with a vengeance. But we're not going back to the good ol' prim and proper plain Janes with the plain hair bows! This year, it's all about being fun, quirky and free while still celebrating your femininity. Hair bows are no longer just cutesy baby gifts; now big girls can wear them too. You should not miss out on this renewed love for hair bows because even fashion's big names have started taking notice. Hair bows were recently seen on the runways of Marc Jacobs, Diane von Furstenberg, Temperley and Luella.
Unless you're a seasoned fashionista, it's never easy to predict which trends are keepers and which are simply "flavors of the month." Some will stay, a whole lot will go. Hair bows may be hot right now, then tacky next season. But what's important to remember is that at the end of the day, being fashionable is all about how you carry yourself.
We've seen enough fashion-forward personalities looking quite fabulous in what would have been a tragic mess if worn by anyone else. So heads up, backs straight, walk like you own the place, and leave everyone staring at your sweet new style.
