Choosing one
Match the headwear to the dress's main colour or its lace. Big headbows suit busy sweet prints; a simple rectangle or rose clip suits classic dresses. If the headwear comes from the same print series as the dress, the coordinate looks finished with little effort.
Comfort
Headbands can press behind the ears after a few hours. Clips and rectangular headdresses tied with ribbon are more comfortable for long days.
