Ladies! Ladies use to keep their hair from their brushes and put it in a hair receiver. odd. the hair was then used to stuff pin cushions or make the afore mentioned jewellery. mean. Another use for this dead hair was to make ratts, which essentially are giant hair balls that were stuffed inside your hair do to make you look like Amy Winehouse. This was because back in the day they had very little in the way of makeup and everyone was heinous so they would style their hair elaborately in hope of attracting the male gaze. Sounds kind of eew but then again it is your own hair and it was dead on your head at one stage its just that its now in ball form. om nom nom?
LACE IN FASHION
Well.... before the 16th century lace was for decorating household furnishings, by the 17th century it was all lace collars, cuffs, veils, you name it... It had no function whatsoever than to decorate, enhance, embellish and distinguish the upper class who wore it. It required great skill and great lengths of time and patience to create lace so it is no suprise that it became a symbol for the wealthy. With the industrial revolution beginning in the late 18th century many lace makers lost their jobs as they were replaced by machines... their craft was rendered almost useless. In the 20th century lace began to be used more for undergarments and subtle embellishments on clothing rather than flambouyant cuffs and collars. The 1980's ruined lace making it tacky and whorish. I'm talking out my ass but its kinda true
