Even in headdresses, the Renaissance was much more
individualistic than the Middle Ages had been. Many
radically different styles of headdresses were fashionable
during the Tudor period in France, England, Flanders and the
Netherlands. In general, the more elaborate headdresses were
smaller and cut closer the head than previous fashions. The
simpler ones were more tailored than the many different
varieties of veils favored in earlier fashion trends. Snoods
were worn without veils, and many different versions of
hoods were seen. Some styles were seen almost exclusively in
one area or country, while others were more widespread.
