Eliot's disdain was perhaps strongest for mind-and-millinery novels. In the 19th century, millinery shops sold women's hats and the style of the day tended to be extremely decorative and impractical. Likewise, Eliot considered these novels to have over-dressed language and impractical plots. These mind-and-millinery novels stick to a particular formula. The heroine, or female lead, was always impossibly beautiful, wealthy, bright, popular, and virtuous beyond measure. She would, of course, have dozens of suitors, all of them rich, intelligent or morally upstanding. The plot of a mind-and-millinery novel followed this typical pattern: a wealthy heiress, or one who recently had good fortune to enter high society, enthralls everyone with her wit and frustrates the men who seek her hand. She might marry the wrong man at first but events transpire that allow her to be with her male counterpart, who is naturally approving of her intelligence and education. By the end of the novel, she is even more perfect than she'd begun.
