👩‍🍳👨‍🎨👼 Ooooh, is this your fashion era?!

Nerd 🤓 says: Made popular in the Elizabethan and Tudor eras, these began as small, humble frills on shirts and evolved into massive “cartwheel” ruffs. They were massive, heavily starched, and symbolized extreme wealth and aristocratic status.

  History’s most inconvenient and silly fashion.

    You can make your own……but I wonder what would be the WR take on it (besides size; like Basquiat’s crown)…and where the hell do you get horsehair tape nowadays?!
