Wigs were worn in Parliament as a way to show of in the eighteenth century. It was a sign of wealth to have a wig. The bigger the wig the better.

Wigs are traditionally worn in courtrooms in the British Isles because it was to conceal the identity of judges and barristers, thus protecting them from attack outside the courts.
