Origin: A borrowing from French. Etymon: French perrucque.
Etymology: < Middle French perrucque, perruque peruke n., with alteration of the form and development of a medial vowel, perhaps by folk-etymological association with periwinkle n.1 (see forms at that entry). A parallel borrowing of the same French word is shown by peruke n. Compare wig n.3The reason for the voicing of the final consonant shown by the β. forms is unclear. In sense 2 apparently so called on account of its appearance (see quots. 16342 at sense 2, 1674 at sense 2); influence of periwinkle n.2 seems unlikely.
Now archaic and historical.
1.
a. Any highly stylized wig of a kind formerly worn by men and women, and (esp. in Britain and parts of the British Commonwealth) retained by judges and barristers as part of their professional dress. More generally: a wig of any kind.Now chiefly historical (the legal type is generally referred to simply as a wig).
