Scarf should be byzantine - I have NO idea where the idea that berets are associated with the byzantine rite - OR how you think French and byzantine go together? I'm a former Latin rite who is now Byzantine. There's nothing French about it. It's from Eastern Europe/Constantinople.

I've only seen Roman lace and scarves at Byzantine Divine Liturgies.

But I was told those specific categories were so by a woman, so I presumed they knew better than I did.

Sequence probably should be Sequins.

Apart from that, these are very interesting and bold conclusions.

I have to go find a crochet veil pattern. I'm sure I started a knitted black cashmere one a long time ago. Maybe that would do.

Can you write such an illuminating article on how to interpret the myriad ways men wear baseball caps? I am so curious!

Hilarious article, I don't like hats, but i do have plenty of colored veils, lace ones and scarfs of various designs and then being in india, I have plenty and I mean plenty of dupatta, they are as varied as they come. There's always one or the other in my handbag, just in case we drop into a Church. I'm married but I love wearing the white veils that I owned before marriage. Lol

I've never even heard of dupatta, wow. I guess we'll have to do an expanded, corrected edition or a part ii to this. Thank you.
