Pearl Headband

"We wore white crepe dresses trimmed with satin ribbon & the bodices & sleeves spotted with white beads. . . Thursday night, Pearl combs, necklaces, earrings, & brooches. . . Tuesday evening we had sprigged muslin. . . gold ornaments & flowers in our heads & Friday we wore yellow gauze dresses over satin, beads in our heads & pearl ornaments" 
Fanny Knight Austen

Threading pearl beads through their hair was one way that Regency ladies adorned themselves for an evening or formal event. The portrait of Empress Josephine of France shows how they might be worn. You can easily achieve a similar effect using this wired headband, strung with 5 mm pearl beads.
