This image was different for the jewel she wears around her head. These kinds of headpieces and flowers are now back in fashion today.

Most of the clothing in this Century is full of voluminous gowns called houppelandes which were floor length. They were covered in jewels, and fethers. Wool was the most popular fabric then linen and hemp. Hair pieces were very popular and the hair was often worn back pulled away from the face.
