A-List Old Hollywood actresses who NEVER wore a headscarf

Either photographed or on film. I bet we can find a photo of most of them sporting this look at some point.

^ Joan was wearing that as a character in a movie.

Ladies headscarfs are ugly. Queen Eizabeth II was advised to stop wearing them.

I loved the look and its faint connotations of exotica. Though would probably just look marmish on a woman like Liz Windsor so her advisor was probably right.

Well this is 'niche'.

There aren't many because they're not flattering.

Some of these look more like hoods and veils than headscarves.

Yes, turbans allowed.
