The Brabant bonnet and poffer in Schaijk and Reek - Pia Liersen

The book focuses specifically on the history, forms, and wearing of the Brabant cap and the poffer (the iconic, richly decorated festive cap with wide lace strips and flowers) in the villages of Schaijk and Reek. This type of headwear was the ultimate status symbol for Brabant women on special occasions and at church in the nineteenth and early twentieth centuries.
