Widow's weeds consist of a heavy, black dress that conceals the female figure, as well as a black "weeping veil" worn over the head and face when venturing outdoors. Indoors, women would wear a "widow's cap." These items were typically made from or decorated with crepe, a dull (non-reflective) fabric made from silk.
