bonneted

Wearing a bonnet

Bonneted means wearing a bonnet—a brimmed hat tied under the chin, or in British usage, having a hood (bonnet) over the engine compartment: a bonneted figure in the old photograph, the bonneted sports car gleamed in the showroom.

The word appears most often in historical or literary contexts describing women or children in traditional dress.
