"Bridgerton"'s Queen Charlotte is known for her creative, larger-than-life wigs. But it took some time for her to reach that place, as witnessed in the new series. The evolving hairstyles in "Queen Charlotte: A Bridgerton Story" show a journey. When we're first introduced to Charlotte in episode one, she's just travelled to a new country to marry a man she's never met and she wears her hair with its natural texture. "Our young Queen Charlotte really knows who she is and where she goes and then, as she adapts to this world, the hair becomes more elaborate," says Collins. Slowly she morphs into the playful, experimental queen we know from "Bridgerton."
Young Queen Charlotte's hair is contrasted by young Lady Danbury's, who wears a slightly looser, freer version of her same hairstyle as the older version of herself. "[Lady Danbury] kind of already conformed to that society, whereas our young Charlotte is fighting that right now."
