The 19th century cap was a modest necessity. Worn by spinsters and matrons both young and old, it neatly covered a lady’s hair while she was at home and abroad. By 1840, styles in caps had changed yet again, in large part to accommodate the early Victorian hairstyles. The caps were composed of lace lappets of a large size, attached on each side of the front hair and often intertwined with a sprig of flowers.
