A war bonnet is the traditional ceremonial headdress of Native American tribes. Historically it was worn by male leaders to emphasize their social status. This headgear is made from feathers and decorated with colorful ribbons, embroidery, beadwork, or similar decorations. They used to be worn in battles; today, Native Americans use war bonnets as ceremonial headdresses.
Here is the traditional vintage war bonnet

Native American Indians from South America in their folk costumes, including traditional war bonnets. These outfits are modern but they look pretty – just imagine how much work it took to make such garments.

Beautiful Native American attire from Canada. The warbonnet looks especially lush and eye-catching.
