The Steampunk Museum Yumington Magazine | Le magazine du style de Yumington Steampunk-fr.com Edwardian Hair Tutorial! Welcome to part three of my four-part Victorian Hair Tutorial series. Today I'm cheating a little, as Edwardian era hair is not Victorian, but I wanted to cover a wider range of hair styles and it was this or Romantic-era hair (shudder!). Today's tutorial is for a hairstyle that was popular around 1911-1914. Women became interested in styles that seemed exotic, and this was "Greek", or at least their approximation of it. Fashions were changing pretty radically from just ten years before; dresses were long and close to the legs, and the pigeon-breast was out. 1. 2. 3. 4. Now, break out your Titanic-era dress, and stroll with first class!

JdR Editions - Jeux de role, jeux de societe Fan Art Exhibit Gibson Girl Hair: A Tutorial This is the first of a planned four-part series where I give tutorials on how to execute period hairstyles. I'm not going in chronological order, so the first one I'm covering is the iconic Gibson Girl style. Stay tuned for future tutorials on Civil War Era Hair, 1870's-1880's Styles, and Edwardian (Titanic Era) Hair. To start with, the first thing you need to understand about Victorian and Edwardian hair is that a lot of the elaborate styles you see in fashion plates and illustrations are exaggerations of what women actually wore (the same goes for dresses!). The best source for real Victorian hair is CDV's (carte des visites) which show how real women of the period looked and dressed. The second thing you need to understand is that while women in this time period usually kept their hair pretty long, they still routinely used falls and hair pieces to acheive the styles they wore, especially for formal occasions. Now, on to the tutorial part: 1. 2. 3. 4. 5.
