A study of the magnificent bonnets presented in this book shows color photos from all angles. It is true that the use of luxury and expensive fabrics and trims enhanced the beauty of a bonnet, it was the artistic eye and skilled hands of the milliner who transformed these materials into wearable works of art. This is a beautiful presentation by Theriault.
