What colonial clothing style would you wear if there were a colonial costume party?
The Colonial era of Mexico facinates me. I am curious about those carriages that were used for transportation. I saw one in a museum in Zacatecas.
Also I am curios about the styles of clothing. For instance, the triangular colonial hats that they wore and also another style where some of the men wore scarf or cloth covering the scalps of their head. Kind of like what pirates wear.
On the mexican 50 peso bill, the picture Jose Maria Morelos wears one.
Can someone tell me what do you call that style of cloth that people from the colonial days wore covering the scalp of their heads? It is like what the pirates wore.
If there were a Nuestros Ranchos Colonial Costume party, what style would you wear?
