Bridgerton‘s Season 4 masquerade is approaching, and while most characters are hiding behind masks, Queen Charlotte (Golda Rosheuvel) is wearing her heart in her hair…

Always sporting an impressive wig, the monarch is saying a lot with her masquerade style, thanks in part to Nic Collins, hair and makeup designer on the series. Collins previously worked on Queen Charlotte: A Bridgerton Story, and she put that into the masquerade wig as she explained to us on set.

“Queen Charlotte, her wig is a cage, and that cage is… We took the inspiration from the galaxy, from the stars because George loves the stars and astronomy, so if you actually look at it, it’s all stars lined up as a cosmos,” Collins explains of the heart-shaped cage placed upon Charlotte’s head. As fans of Queen Charlotte will recall, King George (Corey Mylchreest) and his young bride (played by India Amarteifio) connected over his interest in the stars as he observed them through advanced telescopes.
