La Parure des Dames, Plate 12

Last plate of a set of 10 plates of men's and women's coiffures, containing four designs for women's coiffures. The hairstyles are presented inside four simple, rectangular frames, each containing an illustration of the upper body of a woman, wearing a fashionable dress of the 1770s, and matching hairstyles. The first hairstyle is made up of a light blue bonnet with a grid of lozenges made up of purple, intersecting lines, bordered with strips of white pearls, and decorated with thin garlands of flowers, colored with purple and orange, and green leaves. The second hairstyle consists of a heart-shaped, light blue bonnet, decorated with ruffled strips of fabric, purple and red ribbons, strips of pearls and red roses, and with a hanging tassel at the back. The third hairstyle, of a cascading style, is made up of layers of curls, decorated with red roses with green leaves, framed by green and purple ribbons and strips of white pearls, and topped by two large feathers. The final hairstyle is made up of a light blue bonnet with undulating pieces of fabric that form a crown-like shape above the woman's hair, decorated with purple, yellow, and green ribbons, and with bundles of red roses, orange rosettes, and green leaves.
