My thoughts turn to hats

[alysten]

I am not a milliner.  I really do not have the desire to become a milliner. 

So LJ hive mind... where do I go to find/purchase proper German/Swiss head wear for a woman for the time period of 1500s, for a lower class/tross.  I am looking for something that is easy on easy off as this will be going with my armor, and is mainly worn to and from the list, and sometimes guard duty.

Right now I am wearing my hair pulled back or braided.

Cool! They are not listed in her Etsy store yet as she is just doing her first commission for a customer in Europe. However, she has done a LOT of work on these hats over the years (including a few A&S entries I believe) and I have bought items from her in the past - a Schlappe for my husband - so I can recommend her with a clear conscience.
