Mongolian noble women in ancient time wore a kind of high and big hat crown, and later these hats were not limited to noble Women anymore. In festive days or big celebrations, women from ordinary families also wore this kind of hat. The hat crown is enclosed with birch skin, 30-50cm high and quadrangle shape at the top.The hat is covered with colorful silk and decorated with bead pieces, amber, peacock feathers or blackcock feathers etc. Any other adornments on the hat could be added or deleted at will, but feathers could not be omitted. Besides, girls also like to wrap a scarf around head, usually using cloth or silk of more than one meter long. The wrapping ways are different in different areas and for people of different ages.
