To bring the Renaissance to life while studying Shakespeare’s Macbeth, seniors in Donna Gibson’s English class researched costumes and clothing from that time period and fashioned hats based on their research. The students found that most hats for women were intended to be worn with long hair. The hats or headdresses were shaped into halos--escoffins--or turbans, formed into cones, or shaped to be worn with veils such as pillbox-styled and diamond-shaped fanchons and Juliets. Other hats, such as the muffin hat, were soft and relaxed. Many headpieces sported feathers or jewels. Senior Stephanie Garcia thoroughly enjoyed the project and said, "Making the hats was a fun way to connect to the Renaissance, different from just reading literary selections from the period."
