Romano's enchanting doll, head bands have been a timeless accessory that transcends generations and styles. Whether it's adding flair to an evening dress or completing a casual look, these versatile accessories have always found their place in fashion history. Take a trip back to 1939 when Hepzibah, the charming doll created by Josephine C. Romano, donned a delicate head band that perfectly complemented her vintage charm.
