# Maid Head

## Visual Elements


White mob cap / maid headband, ruffly in shape.

## Cultural Context

The maid headband (mob cap) originates from French domestic servant uniforms of the 18th and 19th centuries. In contemporary culture, maid headwear has been thoroughly recontextualized through Japanese maid cafe culture, anime cosplay, and the broader Milady aesthetic, where the maid outfit represents a deliberate play on servility, femininity, and ironic performance.

<!-- justification
## Justification

The maid headband is core Milady iconography — where French domestic history meets anime maid cafe culture meets ironic internet performance.
