Cap

Department Store E. A. Morrison, Importer

Not on view

In the early 1880s the hair was dressed very simply and lay close to the head, with large curls worn low and the front waved or in a large knot on the crown and the front combed back. Young women wearing the fashionable hairstyle of the time were no longer wearing day caps. This cap would more likely have been worn by a married woman as part of her morning toilette.
