Well, Boticelli's PRIMAVERA is 1482, so a bit late, but why not go
with a floral wreath anyway? For winter concerts you could use winter
greenery wih accents of berries and colder-weather flowers like small
chrysanthemums.... For spring (if you wear the GFDs that late into
the year) of course there are beautiful early-spring flowers....Very
festive, very pretty...or is that more "fantasy" than the impression
you want to convey?

How about, say, 1450 give or take 10 years? or so...

Last year, my vocal consort was entirely outfitted in GFD's for our
winter performances (thanks for the great lecture series,
Robin!) :-D
This year, we'ld like to add appropriate headwear. Might anyone be
able to suggest some links or bits of wisdom?
The dress style spans 100 years and several countries, and headdress
changed by place and time. Do you have a tighter focus on where your
particular GFDs and your performance impression fit within that?
