In medieval Europe, men and women in towns wore robes. Cold halls and drafty buildings force people to wear robes that reach the floor and are connected to hoods (hoods, also called vests). The raw materials and colors of these robes and headscarves are determined by everyone's wealth and social status. Because scholars in early universities were missionaries, their clothes should be consistent with their status in monasteries, wearing khaki robes and headscarves to protect their heads.

As a result, this monk's black robe and headscarf has evolved into a popular costume in universities today, which should be worn not only at school graduation ceremonies, but also at other major celebrations.

Later, robes and headscarves began to use brighter colors, and different degrees of dresses gradually became somewhat different. The differences of dressing styles among bachelor, master and doctor mainly appear in headscarves. After a period of time, the headscarf is no longer connected with the robe, but becomes an item alone, and people wear it on their heads.

In the 15th century, hats became popular, and headscarves almost became decorations. When people put them on, they put them down from the top of their heads along their necks, hung them on their shoulders and hung them on their backs. Therefore, the school cap came into being. The original school hat shape originated from the symbol of master's degree. There are several different shapes, some are round, some are square, and some have a cluster of ornaments in the center of the hat. Today's tassels are developed on this basis, only more refined.
