Tiara

ti·ara | tē-ˈer-ə

noun

A head ornament worn in the crown position

A tiara is a type of head ornament that is worn in the place of a crown, historically most commonly by women. The jeweled tiara dates back to Ancient Greece and Rome when both me and women of power wore highly stylized and often jeweled headpieces as a symbol of power. The term today more broadly refers to a narrow headpiece worn by women, popularized during the neoclassicism period of the late 18th century. Specifically, during Napoleonic France, the design was repopularized and they became more common among nobility and wealthy women in Europe.
