Medieval coif with pleats, various colors 1280021500

Medieval coif with pleats

This historically accurate coif is made from plain cotton fabric. It features a generously sized brim and can be tied in the back with ties. The decorative folds that begin at the inner edge of the brim not only make for an attractive look, but also give the bonnet structure. In the Middle Ages and early modern period, the coif or bonnet was a staple headdress for married women, while young, unmarried girls were allowed to keep their hair uncovered (hence the German expression unter die Haube kommen, which literally translates to "go under the bonnet" and remains common idiom today for "getting married").

Furthermore, coifs had the practical advantage of protecting the hair against dirt when performing household chores or other work. Alternative forms for women to cover their heads were, for example, a plain or ruffled/waffled veil (with or without a gorget around the neck), a barbette and fillet, a schapel (a decorated crown-shaped hoop/headpiece often worn in combination with a veil) or a wimple. Even today, coifs and bonnets remain an inherent part of many traditional folk costumes throughout Europe.
This beautiful pleated coif for women is ideal for medieval markets, LARP, reenactment or living history.
