About the middle of the sixteenth century wearing the peruke became a fashion. Immense perukes with curls falling upon the shoulders were worn from about 1660 to 1725, and were then succeeded by smaller and more convenient forms, which had also existed contemporaneously with the former. As late as 1825 some old-fashioned people still wore perukes, and a reminiscence of them remains in Great Britain in the wigs of the Lord Chancellor, the Speaker of the House of Commons, judges, barristers, etc. [Century Dictionary]
大约在16世纪中叶,戴假发成为一种时尚。从1660年到1725年,人们戴着长卷发垂在肩上的巨大假发,然后被更小更方便的形式所取代,这些形式也与前者同时存在。直到1825年,一些老式人物仍然戴着假发,在英国,大法官、下议院议长、法官、律师等人的假发中仍然保留着它们的回忆。[世纪词典]
