To kick off the brief we were asked to research contemporary and historic Elizabethan plats and buns, here is what I came up with:
This first image feels quite Elizabethan to me due to the heart shaped padding on the top of the head. As you can see this has then been covered with plats. I like the idea of the plat right around the padding and not over the top as I think this looks very effective. I think the black of the hair against the white of the ruffles on the outfit look like a very complimentary colour difference.

The third image I found was this one. This feels Elizabethan to me because of the height of the rolls on the head. This also incorporates what looks to be a bun on the back of the head which has been styled in a relaxed way with pieces of the hair loose. Once again this hairstyle has a middle parting which also conveys an Elizabethan feel to the look.
