In women's fashion, there is one thing that is generally neglected, yet can supply infinite possibilities for changing the look of many different pieces in your wardrobe. That accessory, evidently, is the scarf. Scarves have been a part of women's fashion for many decades, in fact there are representations of fringed rectangles of fabric found in Chinese sculpture dating as far back as 1000 b.c.
In the 1950s putting on a scarf was something that evoked an air of Hollywood-style glamour, and superior elegance.They would walk from planes with sunglasses and scarves on looking fantastic and mysterious and produced a total following for the garment. Scarves are worn less in this way today but are still an important section of a woman's wardrobe.
Scarves are made from numerous fabrics and also a selection of styles - traditionally scarves were made from silk or wool but the advent of man made fibres have made scarves a bit less likely to be made from natural fibres. Scarves come in many sizes and shapes, and many are made for particular uses. There are bandanas, large shawl-like scarves, square scarves, rectangular scarves, and triangular scarves. Some scarves have hemmed edges, some have fringed edges, and others (mostly those made from man made fibres) have fused edges.
