It was almost as if everyone had been scared off from their previous ways, given the consequences of some people's recklessness. No longer were people cavorting in luxurious short dresses and oversized trousers - now everyone was trying their best to be upper class and quiet - hats were worn everywhere; almost like another way of covering up and show respect.

Hat styles were quite shaped to the head; I especially love the angular styles as they would really add definition to the face.
