Whether it’s a crown fit for a queen or a pearl headband, Regencycore is all about the headpieces. Like Tyra Banks always said, it’s about modeling from H-2-T (head-to-toe), and Regencycore is no exception to the rule. As Bridgeton and Emma. showcase, you can never go wrong with a good hairpiece. You can take a cue from Anya Taylor-Joy’s character’s handbook as Emma and wear a gorgeous Regency-era bonnet, or, if Marina Thompson is more your style, you can opt to wear a dainty, yet sparkly tiara. Whatever the headpiece you choose, just be sure to make sure that it makes a statement.
